Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
What sort of rubbish is this? Albion Park’s fields for Saturday are declared on the national harness racing website relied upon by punters. And in the 1st race leading reinsdude Nathan Dawson is driving three. Gee that’s helpful isn’t it? About as helpful as Pete McMullen driving two in the same race. And harness racing […]
Why in this modern age of equality does Racing Queensland continue to practice sexism when it comes to promoting the sport? At a time when the leading trainers in NSW, Victoria and QLD are all women (Belinda McCarthy/Kerry Ann Morris, Emma Stewart and Chantal Turpin), and women are in the top 10 on every State […]

Parry is a former or current publican, security company owner, laundry proprietor, bottle shop licensee, sports shop owner, and motelier.

Julia Creek based trainer Tanya Parry is lauded by Racing Queensland as the savior of racing in the far north-west of the State. She probably is too. But if Parry is, then I don’t reckon racing up there is worth saving. I went back a year to see where Tanya Parry’s horses that raced on […]
