As we have said time and time again, Andrew ‘The Canary’ Fitzgerald is the dodgiest syndicator in New Zealand. Calling him a syndicator is even a stretch, because his Off N Racing outfit is not registered as one and doesn’t comply with either the financial or racing rules and laws, despite purporting to. Complaints about […]
Last night at Alexandra Park they ran a prestigious Group 2 race called the Anzac Day trot. There was a lot of Australian interest in the race, hence it was given a prime spot on Sky 1, which is guaranteed to up to triple the betting pools here. It became the debacle from hell. The […]

Hey mate, Aardies peak did qualify from a mobile last weekend at Pukekohe. It went around (in heat 6) and did everything right. It was the heat straight after the heat it won. So maybe why HRNZ hasn’t included it. But definitely passed from the mobile. – Reader 1 Arties Peak heat 6 Auckland workouts […]
NZ Harness Racing Trainer and Drivers Association head Ken Barron said anyone trying to dope was “very foolish”. “It’s going to cost them their livelihoods … they obviously don’t want to be in the game.” https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/racing/124392505/several-canterbury-harness-racing-trainers-suspected-of-doping-horses Ken Barron has made a sworn statement that he treated his horse Black Edition with Levamisole on the 25th […]
