Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Franco Tyson was backed for plenty to win the 3rd race at Penrith last night, firming from $4.40 into $1.90 with plenty more money coming for it on Betfair. The flood of money for it seemed strang, given that the Brian Portelli trained pacer had raced 23 times for just 2 wins, and had at […]
Winx three-quarter sister Wings of Desire adds a bit of spice to today’s Warwick Farm meeting when she resumes from a spell in race six. By Pride of Dubai (a son of Street Cry) out of Vegas Showgirl, the superbly bred 3yo filly seeks to make it three wins from six starts, after previous victories […]
https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/nsw/PCM15022509.mp4 Did you think G. Hall Jr’s drive on Henrik Larsson at Northam was a favorite killer? Then how about this one by Brad Hewitt on The Locomotive at Menangle. The Locomotive is the reigning Inter Dominion champion racing a bunch of plodders rated up to 52 national ratings points lower in class than himself. […]
https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/nsw/BBC16022509.mp4 We think someone may have made an ever so slight mistake with the placings of race 2 at Blayney yesterday. Jungle Dragon was a class above his rivals in the race, but he wasn’t 213.1 metres above them. Or not by the length of our tape anyway. Oops. Update Someone at head office finally […]
This is an extract from the transcript of a conversation between corrupt NSW harness racing stewards Matthew Bentley and Paul O’Toole. Bentley (presently deceased) – who by this stage had turned crown witness in return for immunity from prosecution – covertly recorded the conversation, as he did with many others. The burning questions are who […]
Tuncurry trainer Grant Jobson only has two horses, Imastruestar and No Tackle, the latter of which obviously slipped past the Registrars misunderstood. Jobson used to have three horses, but due in part to his stupidity and neglect, one of them died. She was a wee filly, just three years old. All In Writing was her […]
Division 4 – Corruption, dishonesty and misleading behaviour AR 229 Corruption, dishonesty and misleading behaviour (1) A person must not: (a) engage in any dishonest, corrupt, fraudulent, improper or dishonourable action or practice in connection with racing; (b) engage in conduct that corrupts the outcome of a race or is intended to corrupt the outcome […]
The reason why trainer Grant Jobson should appeal his 6-month disqualification is simple. He was charged and found guilty under the wrong rule. Racing NSW laid the charge against Jobson under rule AR229(1)(b) – Improper action in connection with racing. The problem is that improper actions are dealt with under rule AR229(1)(a), which is not […]
Will Rixon drove he and Valley Start into a bit of bother in the 2nd race at Menangle on Tuesday afternoon. Rixon was 3rd the fence when they reached the straight for home, but rather than wait for the gap to appear he decided to make it appear, so he pushed out underneath Sofia Arvidsson […]
Mate I normally agree with pretty much everything you write but not with what you written about Will Rixon. If you see the video and look closely you notice that the wheels jam together tight and that’s because Sofie has a UFO gig which are bad for this happening with and everyone knows this. Instead […]
