Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Well here we were after Saturday night thinking that we’d ushered in a new era of intelligent Stewarding in NSW. How foolish we were. It wall just an illusion, an mirage in a syringe filled desert drenched with drugs. Targeted, effective and efficient swab sampling is one of the keys to overcoming the corruption crisis […]
Trot trainer Troy Williams can lay claim to the provisional title of King of Penrith after had landed 3 winners and 3 thirds from his six runners at the meeting held there last night. William has had 24 starters at Penrith since the 8th of May. His record reads 10 winners, 4, seconds and 4 […]
It’s comforting to know that the control body Racing Queensland and its erstwhile experts on harness racing are up with the play isn’t it? Or not, as the case may be. Bling it On retired from racing in mid 2018 did he? Bloody hell. A fraud has been pulled on us all. Was that a […]
The NSW Stewards have ordered Jason Grimson to place all of his horses in the retention barn from 12.00pm Sunday (today) until 8.00pm on Saturday 12 June. That means the horses are already there.

This is not a real good look for harness racing in NSW is it? Horses trained by the number two and three trainers on the State premiership ladder Kerry Ann Morris and Amanda Jennifer Turnbull have both thrown positive swabs after winning races. A horse trained by Paul Russo – who only still holds a […]
I told you ten days ago that Steve Fletcher’s former commission agent turned NSW Deputy Chief Gallops Steward Wade ‘Lurch’ Birch was soon to be leaving that role to take up the job of top cop at the dogs. As always, our mail was delivered early and in a packet marked CORRECT. Yesterday the […]
Jackson Painting does not have the track record of an honest man. During his very chequered harness racing career Painting has been tipped out of the game by the stewards for long periods variously for: Betting against horses he was driving Drenching horses with milkshakes Owning and/or training horses under bowler names while disqualified Lying […]
What a great edition of the Shirley Turnbull Memorial it was last night at Bathurst, a great old fashioned race of the sort that grass roots harness racing lovers like me yearn for and adore, a sheer test of speed and stamina over the searching 2795 metres test that sorts out the men and women […]
