Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The Penrith District AH & I Society – which runs the Penrith Paceway and Penrith Showground – says 177 years of history is at stake after the State Government said it would compulsorily acquire the site for a new stadium if commercial negotiations to buy it failed. Infrastructure NSW this morning confirmed that it wants […]
What you is a draft plan for the Penrith redevelopment that was tabled in NSW Parliament last week. I am from Far North QLD and hate Panther town like poison after being robbed twice in the only night I ever spent there, so I don’t understand it. There appears to be a footy stadium to […]
Did you see race 6 at Randwick yesterday? The Stewards obviously didn’t. Watch Tommy Berry’s ride on the horse on the outside that ends up running second. It’s a longshot who is the stablemate of the heavily backed favourite and ultimate winner positioned directly on its inside. Do you reckon Berry rode this horse out […]
She hails from Snowy River, up by Kosciusko’s side, Where the hills are twice as steep and twice as rough, Where a horse’s hoofs strike firelight from the flint stones every stride, The girls that holds her own is good enough. And the Snowy River riders on the mountains make their home, Where the river […]
This race is hot. Amanda Turnbull trains and drives the favourite Iam The Captain. It’s a good horse, resuming from a spell. The market doesn’t want it. It blows from $2.50 out to $3.70. She hooks it back off the gate into the line, and could sit 1-2 on her brother Nathan’s back. Instead AJ […]

Remember Rake 8 at Townsville 18 months back? The one where someone left a rake in front of the boxes before a race, and it flew in the air and almost caused a catastrophe? Well human error happens even though in an ideal world it wouldn’t. But the rake has nothing on this race at […]
Gloaming. Heroic. Windbag. Phar Lap. Bernborough. Delta. Tulloch. Gunsynd. Kingston Town. Emancipation. Might and Power. Lonhro. Winx. Knights Order. Can spot the odd one out? It’s not very hard. This is a roll call of Chelmsford Stakes winners. It has always been a great race. Until today. This year’s version was a race for first-up […]
Sometimes in this racing life things happen, or – in the case I’m about to talk about, don’t happen – that render you speechless and leave you sitting there thinking if this is it, what’s that? Today was one of those days. 13 days ago the Chris Waller trained Durston raced in a 2000m Group […]
About four months ago we warned you that the Western Australian vego-fascist animal activist and adult entertainment artist Tash Peterson was planning to disrupt the Million Dollar Chase. We were not making it up. It didn’t happen in the end because Peterson couldn’t put together a crew to pull it off, but it was going […]
