Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Bushy Beach, the $1.33 favorite in the 7th race at Tamworth yesterday, got rolled because the driver went too fast early. So fast that he ran a 25.5 second lead time, which I reckon might be close to the fastest first split that we have ever seen over 1980m there. Far too fast. The fave […]
News has filtered back to us that breeders of the Eureka runners are yet to be paid their breeder bonus of $10 000 each, or the breeder of the winner their bonus of $30 000. The Eureka was run almost 3 months ago to the day, and HRNSW are not short of cash to pay […]

We have been telling you for a long time that online racing publication The Straight is a front for sectional interests, predominantly the breeders who fund the publication and their friends, who in the time honored warped tradition of anyone who is Peter V’Landys enemy is my friend, includes every wanker under the sun, and […]
This photo was taken a decade ago by Luke Pizzilli, the alleged supplier of a large commercial quantity of drugs and member of Jason Grimson’s lifelong friend Tatts Menangle Crew who was arrested in Western Sydney today when he reported in to the Auburn police station as required by his bail conditions on other matters.

The propaganda machine of the Hanging State couldn’t get the news about its Stewards decision to disqualify trainer Jared Hetherington out quick enough.
