Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Once upon a time NZ Free For All racing in the north island featured fields full of the highest class horses in the land. Now due to the mass outflow of horses sold or transferred to Australia it has come to this. A five horse field for a $20 000 FFA, with one horse – […]
I have been telling your for a year and a half that Sharp ‘N’ Smart was a champion, from even before he had his first start. Well it turns out I was right. Now it’s official. In a vintage year of New Zealand racing and racehorses, Sharp ‘N’ Smart is the best of them all. […]
This above is the Stewards report from Addington on the 1st of September. The Stewards were going to talk to driver Korbyn Newman about his whip use. They must have forgotten. He’s still waiting. What’s that about integrity? It means keeping your word? Nah never. Not in New Zealand. Go the All Blacks!
We haven’t heard boo from that Kiwi clown Mark Jones since we told him and his lawyer to take a march across the ditch and hope they don’t sink. I guess he’s too busy trainer winners. Jones did a Rogie yesterday and got a dual code double. Some horse he trains named Mr Photogenic – […]
The richest man in New Zealand harness racing Tim Vince – aka Our Sir Vincealot – has been in touch after someone told him about the story we wrote about him yesterday. He says he promises to buy a new shirt. The one at the top with Jughead on it. Is this bugger having a […]
This year’s Cox Plate winner – yes, I have talked Rogie into it – resumes tomorrow in the Tarzino Trophy at Hastings. It’s a race that has won by some fantastic gallopers. Grey Way. My Gold Hope. Vice Regal. Starcraft. Seachange. Tavistock. Ocean Park. Melody Belle. Kawi. Rough Habit. A parade call of great horses. But there are better. Four winners of […]
Mark J0nes, a long time ago before he tangled with the author, back when he was training winners We haven’t heard boo from Kiwi trainer Mark Jones since he got his bum lawyer to threaten us with a defamation suit. He’s hardly trained a winner since we had a crack at him either. Funny that. […]
Isn’t it strange how all the Chinese buyers who six weeks ago were snapping up every mare or yearling colt that they could get their hands on, have suddenly disappeared. I wonder how many unborn sons of Terror To Love they took with them? Heaps is my mail. Studmaster Graham Court claims it’s bullshit, but […]
Is it true that sacked the plagiarising journalist turned low rating drive time Brisbane radio host Peter ‘Gleeso’ Gleeson – who we call Scooter – may soon find himself embroiled in a most uncomfortable court matter involving a high-profile politician from the LNP and a man once accused (and later acquitted) of money laundering style […]
This is Sharp ‘N’ Smart galloping with a stablemate between races at Te Rapa on Saturday. He ran sub 36 seconds for his last 600, going at a hand canter. Goodness, gracious me. How good does Merv’s superstar look at the start of his road to the Melbourne Spring Carnival? I don’t think there has […]
