Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Which Victorian father and son training team were the subject of a without notice stable inspection by Stewards on Saturday morning? What were the stipes looking for? Was there any correlation between the surprise inspection and the scratching of four of the trainers runners at Caulfield later that afternoon? South Australian trainer Jayson Finnis is […]
The Brisbane Racing Club must know something that most of us don’t about the funding for its new members stand, for the club last month lodged a development application replete with detailed designs and assessments for the project with the Brisbane City Council. It would be highly unlikely that the BRC would have done such […]
Notwithstanding the concerns expressed in our previous story about inequities in the application by Stewards of the rules, the decision to stand Noel Callow down is in our view the correct one. There is just no excuse for Callow’s racist conduct shown in the video below, and while it happened outside of racing what the […]
Last week the Racing Minister Tim Mander and Racing Queensland CEO Lachlan Murray appeared before the parliamentary estimates committee to answer members questions about the racing portfolio. The hearing, which was allotted only half an hour, was an absolute waste of time. All we got was the former ALP Racing Minister Grace Grace asking questions […]
Has anyone noticed that Brandon Kreymborg – who calls himself BK – seems to have disappeared from our screens since starring in the broadcast team for ID25? While we simply thought he had taken a holiday after his on-track exertions during the coverage of the series, some are saying different. The rumor is he that […]
A fortnight ago we tipped you that barrister Tim Hale would become Chairman of the Australian Turf Clun and Caroline Searcy would be his deputy. We got the quinella.

Story by Matt Nicholls. Blind Freddy could see that it was a false start and should have been called a no-race. But it took the stewards about an hour to draw the same conclusion following this year’s failed Hughenden Cup in what turned out to be farcical scenes. Firstly, let’s go back to the beginning. […]
I dunno who these lads at the Grafton dogs tonight are, but they made effort to give us a smile and a wave so I thought we’d give them one back. Good on ya boys. I hope you are backing a winner.
$1.20 Tim Hale SC – Elected Director (pictured) Waterhouse man. Leading silk. Big wheel at the top end of town. Led the successful anti-sale campaign. Incumbent Vice-Chair. His time has come. We’re tipping him a cert. $4.10 David McGrath – Govt appointed Independent Director. So was rejected and just resigned Chairman Peter McGauran, and look […]
Well you have to say that it’s not often you see us stand up for a Yole. We usually kick the shit out of the bastards every chance we get, and with good reason too because they’re race fixing, joint blocking, horse doping, workers comp dodging, employer superannuation contribution guarantee non-paying, used pacer dogging clan […]
