Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
How the hell did Sir Jason Grimson put an extra second of speed into the legs of Outside Fighter in the space of a few days, without making any gear changes. No notified ones at least. But there were gear changes, don’t you worry about that. It just wasn’t gear that you can see with […]
This morning we told you a story about Outside Fighter, the struggling slug that hadn’t run a place in it’s past 15 starts who had been transferred into the care of the world’s greatest trainer Sir Jason Grimson within the past 7 days. We said that if Sir Jason could conjure up a win with […]
Watch what happens here. That was the favorite screwed. What the hell was a marker peg doing laying across the track? It could only have been knocked down in the previous lap. Why the hell didn’t the Clerk of the Course or one of the track staff speed over and pick it up? There are […]
Jason Grimson has yet another new addition to his barn having its first start in his colors today in race 7 at Menangle. Somewhat unusually, Grimson has elected to drive it today too. The horse’s name is Outside Fighter. a seven-year-old gelding who has raced 145 times over six seasons for just 12 wins, and […]
How in a million years did Dee Roe, the horse behind the leader on the rail, not get disqualified from its 2nd place in the $50000 Simpson Sprint on Saturday night? It’s Aaron Dunn cheated. He drove Dee Roe inside the marker line for at least 100m, steering a path inside or over the pegs […]
Better Be The Best (BBTB)’s mile was better overall than Frankie Ferocious’s, despite Grimson’s new horse running a faster time. Frankie only ran his first quarter in 27 something (27.5 seconds) which is a soft opening split for Menangle. Golden Bay was faster over the first furlong then BBTB, but BBTB was outside him round […]
Jason Grimson is just too good for everyone else at the moment. Last night at Menangle, Grimson had 8 starters in 6 races. He won 4 of them, training the quinella in two where he had dual starters. Grimson’s other pair finished 3rd and 4th. Both were big runs. 7 of the 8 runners had […]
Trot trainers don’t pluck a horse from Jason Grimon’s barn and make it better. It’s unheard of. That’s what Grimson does to others, he doesn’t have it happen to him. Or he didn’t anyway, until the wonder kid Seaton Grima rode into town and did it. Grimson couldn’t train Firefox to win a single race […]
The great Keith McDeed exploded back into the winners list at Newcastle yesterday, breaking a more than a 2-year drought by winning the prestigious TAB Venue Mode HRNSW Guaranteed 2yo Maiden Pace, a race that in the past has been won by legends of the crushed of the compacted granite dust circuit such as Whatshisname, […]
A couple of weeks back we wrote about the amazing later career renaissance of trainer David Waite after he took over the reins from the disqualified Leon Jurd as the trainer for former Club Menangle and HRNSW boss Rex Horne, the real estate with the stand named after him. David Waite’s Golden Run of Success […]
