Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Apprentice Jason Miller has been been declared as the rider for 3 horses at Mt Isa today, and 5 at Barcaldine. Unless Miller is Houdini he cannot ride at 2 meetings located 755km apart on the same day. And accepting mounts you can’t fulfil is a breach of the rules. So why has Racing QLD […]
Dear Archie, Was that the modern day Oedipus Bobo Bailey we observed copping a richly deserved and animated spray from fellow trainer Shryn Royes in the tie ups at Cluden Park on Sunday afternoon? Noted he didn’t have any runners on the day, but surely no one else would be seen dead sporting a BB […]
The entries for race 1 at Townsville on the 18th of September were in my humble opinion a rort, or at least they looked like it anyway. Prizemoney for the race was $21 000, but it carried QTIS bonuses of an extra $12 000, which made it a pretty rich race by North Queensland standards. […]
There were 26 starters on the 5 race card at Richmond yesyterday. Tanya Parry trained half of them (13). Shryn Royes trained about another third (8). The only other runners on the program were trained by Ray Hermann (3) and Toni Schofield (2). Prizemoney for the meeting was $50 000 plus $7 500 in QTIS […]
It has been four years since the one time a long time ago leading Brisbane 2-year-old trainer John Zielke led in a winner, so it will come as no shock to anyone that the these days hobby trainer missed again yesterday at Eagle Farm, with his reluctant maiden galloper Kalamia King finishing out of the […]
John Zielke was once the King of the Kids, the most successful trainer of 2-year-olds in QLD. It seems a long time ago. In recent years Zielke hasn’t trained a winner since Adam was a boy. He tries again tomorrow to crack his drought for the umpteenth time. Eagle Farm race 1 number 1 Kalamia […]
The LNP t0ok over as the QLD Government after that imbecile Steven (Smiles) Miles gifted it to them, and as a result a bible bashing hypocrite who knew plenty about footy but SFA about racing took over as Racing Minister from the well-meaning niece of Tony and Gerry Bellino, who knew absolutely nothing about racing […]
The CEO of the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Committee Cindy Hook has walked the plank, and exited stage left. As a result the whole Olympics show is in disarray. But there is a simple way to fix it. Appoint the QRIC Commissioner Catherine Clark to take Hook’s place. Cath Clark is a gun. She has run […]
Trainer Jason Morgan has two horses accepted for race 4 at Callaghan Park on Saturday. One of them is a 3-year-old gelding called Sport. Me thinks he might just be a bowler there to hold up the field, and that he will soon be scratched. But I am just a cynic. Sports has never raced […]
What an absolute cracker of a meeting it was at Eagle Farm yesterday. Just six races, half of them maidens, one with only six runners and two with just eight. An early and main quaddie that overlaps in two races. What is the point? Running such a poor program costs as much it earns. There […]
