Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
I’ve just been reading through the Racing Victoria ‘Green Paper’ – Strategic Plan – for the next decade, and am sitting here shaking my head and wondering what planet these people are on. Some of RV’s potential (read: gunna happen, but we just can’t say so yet) plans are no brainers. Sandown gets sold to […]

I was saddened to hear about the passing last on Sunday of Gail Baulch, who along with her husband Tony used to run the Wavell Heights, Nundah, Chermside Village, and New Farm TAB’s. I didn’t know Gail other than to bet with and say g’day to when I passed her in the street, but she […]
Once upon a time Doomben was one of the best wet weather tracks in Australia. It used to dry quickly and be raceable when other tracks couldn’t, and only sustained heavy rainfall over consecutive days would see a meeting called off.
