Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Tom Smith, the Rockhampton based trainer with the most famous name in racing but not a tenth of the ability, is said to be in a spot of Barney Rubble, and if the mail is right he deserves to be too. Smith is reported to have violently beaten an unraced 2-year-old in his care, to […]
Steve O’Dea, one of the nice guys of racing departs The O’Dea and Hoysted training partnership is over. There is no scandalous story or fallout or anything like that we are told. Steve O’Dea just wanted to step away and take a break from the hustle and bustle and the 24/7 demands of running a […]
This is the tongue of the topweight Namazu after the Townsville Cup, in which the horse put on a rodeo performance after 100m and took no competitive part in the race. Goodness me. Hasn’t he paid the price for being in a pig of a mood? A spell will do him good.

The mail is that the Jason Grimson trained District Attorney broke out of his stable on the afternoon of the Black’s A Fake, and was running loose and unrestrained around the track. Apparently the horse had skin off him all over as a result of the incident. Grimson didn’t make any report about what happened […]
There is a slight problem with the Stewards Report from Fabs Cowboys last day of racing at Longreach on Saturday that’s been posted on the QRIC website. This is not actually Saturday’s Longreach Stewards report. It says it is, but its not. It’s the report from the meeting held at the track on the 12th […]
Earlier in the week we told you about Chantal Turpin’s trotter Top Of The Moment’s atrocious record of galloping in races, and explained to you why he shouldn’t have been allowed to race in the Group 1 Trotter’s Cup last night, as under the usual practice the Stewards should have stood the horse down.
