Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
That’s how we feel about Mark Latham’s stinky kinky foecal fetishes too We told you many times during his demented attacks on PVL that Mark Latham was a shitman. If his ex-girlfriend is to believe he has proven us dead right. What sort of a bloke drops a turd on his girlfriend and then insists […]
John Dumesny (far left) with Peter V’Landys at Harold Park. It’s good to have friends. You can say what you like about Peter V’Landys, but when it comes to his friends he is extremely loyal and a solid a rock. He really looks out for his mates. And he looks after them too. PVL had […]
The Australian Turf Club has put two questions for its members to vote on. These two questions are, in essence, should the ATC (a) Sell Rosehill to the NSW government? (b) Replace Rosehill with a new Group 1 quality racecourse. Simple questions really, but multi-layered with complexity. For a start the phrase Group 1 racecourse […]
The Kiama Blowhole A Newmarket style major training centre will be developed in close proximity to Sydney to future proof the industry and provide trainers with an opportunity to acquire their own training base as an asset for their businesses. This initiative will increase the number of horses in training close to Sydney and support […]
It’s not all that often that I disagree with Peter V’Landys, but when it comes to his views expressed to the Rosehill sale inquiry our opinions diverge completely. V’Landys told the inquiry that it is racehorse owners who fund the industry, not punters or the government. To that I say bullshit. People buy racehorses to […]
Despite suffering a $20 million decline in wagering revenue in the past year as part of a national trend, Peter V’Landys oft criticized micro-management of Racing NSW finances has steered the organization to record a bumper profit of $12.6 million for the 2023/24 financial year. And he’s done while increasing prizemoney by $36 million at […]
Those of us with long memories will remember the days when the Sydney races on Derby Day were shite. Nothing sort of affairs with no particular interest to anybody except the connections of the runners.\ It wasn’t that long ago. Rewind to Rosehill on Derby Day in 2014. There were eight races on the card, […]
At a time when Racing NSW is under fire from all quarters and is an has been referred for consideration of contempt before a State Parliamentary Inquiry, you’d think that great care would be taken in the process for appointing new members to the organization’s board, particularly given the trenchant criticisms (warranted or not) that […]
PETER V’LANDYS: Absolutely. My evidence today will absolutely destroy what they’ve written in that letter anyway because none of it is true. The other thing that was said in Parliament, which is completely false, is that I interfere in stewards’ inquiries. In the 20 years I have been at Racing NSW I have not interfered—and […]
Not exactly sure where the frogs are but I presume they live in the brick pit pond, where the water is. The brick pit is an excavation about a 100m drop below the surrounding land, the brick pit walk is an elevated walk that goes out over space across the pit. Access to the pit […]
