Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Yesterday morning we write about how the Murrihy inquiry report is supposed to be handed down by the end of this week. Late yesterday arvo it is announced that the report’s delivery has been put back by 8 weeks. You have to start suspecting that fix is in don’t you? We certainly not, but there […]
Jason ‘Jill’ Grimson, Jack ‘Turbo’ Trainer, and Seaton ‘Jilly Boy’ Grima fixed the Redcliffe Cup last night. The go horse was Loyalist. Jilly trained it, and Jilly Boy drove it. Loyalist had won just 4 races from 53 starts – all of them at it’s home track of Rangiora, near ‘Slimy’ Sam Taylor the man […]
Ashley Manton has been around a while and is no angel, and hasn’t been for a long time. Here he at Charlton back in 2014 beating the crap out of a horse. Manton is the driver of the leader on the inside. Look how hard he hits it. A few years later in 2017 Manton […]
I have never in entire life seen a more obviously crooked team drive than the one that Kate Gath pulled in the 8th at Melton last night. Gath drove the $1.40 favorite Encipher, trained by Emma Stewart and winner of a half million dollars and last year’s 3YO Filly of the Year award. It was […]
154. (1) If a horse breaks gait during a race, its driver shall take immediate action to avoid interference with other runners and without gaining an unfair advantage restrain the horse to its correct gait before rejoining the race without interference to another runner. Did not happen. Encipher did not break gait. 162. (1) A […]
Chris Voak had 2 runners in the last race at Gloucester Park on Tuesday night. One of them was Per Adua Ad Astra, which opened up as the $1.22 favorite. There wasn’t a cent of betting for it. It blew out to $1.85 at start time. The other Voak runner was All Aussie Mach. It […]
Ignore everything that Singo and Gerry say, Hawaii Five Oh cannot win the Straddie. In fact it’s the lay of the day. 5 of the past 23 winners have been 3YO’s, two of them fillies (La Montagna and Private Steer), two of them geldings Sincero and Snipers Bullet), and one – Impending in 2017 – […]
This is race that is the immediate focus of attention of the Stewards investigating racing corruption. The horse that blew from $3.70 to $6.oo is Blistering, in the orange and white stripes, ridden by Lewis German. He is a crook, a thief, a cheat and a bum. The investigation is ongoing, but one thing is […]
What the hell went on here? I am told by more than one reliable source that Grant Dixon yelled out to his wife Trista to kick the $126 shot Mister Domingo up in the death and keep the favorite driven by Matt Elkins wide. And then when the fave did get across they say G. […]
This is race 9 at Albion Park last night. Blacksadance is the $1.45 favorite. Grant Dixon’s horse Governor Jujon has posted it in the death running two sub 30 quarters. Dixon goes 27.7 f0r the 3rd quarter to tank the fave. Then he does this. Watch his head really closely. See him look? If not […]
