Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Ronald ‘RJ’ Johnson – the man I call Brown Rice – is the world’s leading weight stripper from lean frames. He just took almost 10 percent of the already incredibly lean jockey Ben Allen’s body weight off him in ten days and left him as strong as he was when the crash diet started, and […]
Here is an ‘interview’ conducted with new Racing Victoria Integrity chief Brent Fisher. Fisher was formerly with Harness Racing Victoria, although little mention is made of that. He is also being personally sued for a fortune by the criminally persecuted and recently vindicated harness racing identity Nathan Jack, who since his return has won 2 […]
Jamie Evans is one of the many Victorian racing participants who have been abused by pedophiles like trainers Geoff Murphy (dead) and Gerald Ryan (still licensed, incredibly). Most of these victims lives are train wrecks, the ones that are still alive anyway. Those who appear to still have it together have, like me when younger, […]
The multi hundred thousand dollar live country racing broadcast vision contract handed on a platter to On The Bit Racing by Racing Queensland continues to return huge results for the people of both the city and the bush, as you can see by the outstanding vision at the top provided from yesterday’s Mt Isa meeting. […]
We have had a couple of calls since we put up the story about Jaden Lloyd being allowed to claim 2 kilos off Hatchet’s weight when he replaced the over weight Ryan Maloney at the last minute in the $127 500 QTIS 3YO Handicap at Caloundra on Saturday, and most of them are saying that […]

The tale of David Moran’s suspension is an interesting one, and quite salacious too, but setting that aside it raises some very serious questions about the integrity of Harness Racing Victoria, and the Principal Racing Authority’s commitment to honesty, fairness, justice and the truth. For the purposes of this discussion, we wish to concentrate purely […]
New Zealand trainer Trudy Keegan, for reasons of her own, is unvaccinated against COVID-19. That is her choice, but it means that she is not allowed to put others at risk by attending the races. On the 13th of January she decided to say ‘stuff you’ to the racing participants who acted responsibly, and went […]
Queensland does not just have a shortage of jockeys. We have a shortage of Stewards too. If you have at least one leg, an eye or ear (applicants with neither will still be considered under the QRIC Equal Employment Opportunity policy), are prepared to kiss Pete Chadwick and his boss Shane Gillard’s arse, hate Archie […]
There is a lot of ill-feeling floating around Queensland racing circles about Winxy Waller’s Queensland racing manager, a young regally bred son of a rich and influential funds manager named Fitton. The word is that this silver spoon fed fast tracked yuppie was contacted recently by a well-regarded and earnest jockey manager, who was simply […]
