Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
I don’t know Peter V’Landys does it*, but he does, and he just keeps doing it every year. The Racing NSW CEO is incredible, and a decent man too. Not everyone thinks so, including some of my mates, but they are wrong. PVL is a good bloke. Trust me when I say this, for I’m not […]
The glorious vision of a rocking Royal Randwick was what Racing NSW chief executive Peter V’landys saw in his Everest dreams, and fortunately for racing in the premier state, the country’s best sporting administrator is here to stay. V’landys has led racing to financial freedom via winning the race fields court case and a mountain […]
Do you reckon Leichardt Oval needs an upgrade 😳 pic.twitter.com/N2COjqjqTD — Ryan Fitzgerald (@FitzySA) August 6, 2022 What happened at Leichardt Oval during a schoolboys Rugby Union match was terrible.

Good judges rate the 1985 Hagler v Hearns bout as the second greatest fight in boxing history, behind only the almost supernatural Ali v Frazier III, the Thrilla in Manila, and I agree with them. These two amazing middleweight’s went at each other toe to toe from moment that the bell rang, dazzling us with […]
A few days back we said that PVL was playing the NSW Govt on a string over the NRL Grand Final, and his threats to take it away. Of course we were right. He’s not much of a Premier this bloke is he? If guts were garters his socks would be down around his ankles. […]
The seismic shift in the balance of racing power in Australia can be see clearly in a comparison of the top 10 races in 2011 v the top ten in 2021. Ten years ago five of the big ten were run in Victoria, four in Sydney and one in Queensland. A decade later the balance […]
