Kyal Costello is Victorian Harness racing driver. In the space of 4 months he placed bets in 24 races in which he was competing. Let’s just hope that he backed his own horses. If he didn’t, then Mr Cosello would be well advised to find himself a new hobby. We won’t be seeing him at […]
The Victorian Jockeys Association is Off It’s Head
Look at the crude drawing I did above of two race tracks built inside each other. Do they look the same size? Of course not. You can’t build an oval circuit inside an oval circuit and not expect it to be smaller. That’s just stupid. Caulfield is 2080m around from post to post, and has […]
24 Hours After Pammy Was Handed Her Medal For Services to Women in Racing, One Simple Picture Shows How the QCAT Have Dragged Us to the Dark Ages
The picture at the top that you see was taken at the Mareeba races on the weekend. I didn’t take it, but I was there. It’s my local track, 25 minutes down the road. This man leading the horse in the picture is David Reynolds, the trainer who is facing multiple criminal charges relating to […]
Racing’s Attitude to Domestic Violence Must Change, Right Now
This has been sent to us by a concerned reader. Whilst for legal reasons we cannot confirm the allegations made, peterprofit.com supports every word that the reader says both about domestic violence, and about racing’s attitude toward it. It is not okay to turn a blind eye to violence against women, for it sends a […]
The Only Thing Worse Than Saturday Racing at Scone is a Pikelet
Was that debacle at Scone yesterday the worst day’s racing since the one the week before? Does PVL really have to inflict this sort of rubbish on us just so that he can keep his patron John Messara sweet by running a metro meeting at the bloke’s home track? Hasn’t V’Landys transcended that sort of […]
We Live in a World Where Privileges Are Earned, Not Inherited – Moving Danny Bougoure Out of the Infield Stables to Give Someone Else a Go is the Right Call
Think I’m going down to the well tonight And I’m going to drink till I get my fill And I hope when I get old I don’t sit around thinking about it But I probably will Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture A little of the glory of, well time slips away And leaves […]
Whiskey, Girls, Murky Tales, Murder Trials, Honest Cops and Modern Tiles – Nothing in This Life is Ever as it Seems (First Published Early 2020)
The Whiskey Au Go Go manslaughters – people slaughters, not murders, for the homicide wasn’t intentional – ended with 15 people dying. It wasn’t meant to be like that. The building was just supposed to burn down. But a few fuck-ups fucked up, and the flames flew up, and the doors were locked, and there […]
There is a Pollyanna in Every Wonderland
Archie I backed the program at the poly track today. Its ABC. Treat it like a heavy 10, wet or dry. Horses who can’t handle heavy tracks out , horses who can handle them in. It’s easy-peasy-Japanesy Stop bagging the joint. I wish they raced there every day! Happy punting A. Lunatic (Editor’s note: the […]
Aren’t There Some Idiots in the World?
Thoughts on Stephanie Thornton on #19 campai at sunny coast. Hasn’t fully rode the horse surely?? Big market support late as well.

Put These Bums Last
I saw this on Twitter today, and my immediate reaction was not to believe it. It has to be a hoax I thought, a photo-shopped piece of anti-Green propaganda. Surely no semi-mainstream party would be so ridiculous that one of their policies would be shut down all forms of racing. That’s just insane. I forgot […]
