There is some very disturbing mail coming out of the King Country in New Zealand’s north island. Two leading trainers and another racing licensee are said to have recorded themselves having group sex with an 18-year-old employee of a major stud. A copy of the recording is rumoured to have been sent to the high-profile […]
So a mare bleeds in a race run over 1350m. She cops the mandatory 3 month ban. And is required to gallop to the satisfaction of the stewards over 1000m before being allowed to race again.

It seems that not a week goes by without some sort of monumental stuff up by the QRIC, and yesterday was no exception at all. A horse named Bader was drawn barrier 5 in the first race on the main card at Doomben. Despite their being 3 starters on duty no-one had checked the starting […]
Irishman Kevin Connolly was director of racing at Tongshun. It was alleged the horses were slaughtered as a protest against the government’s refusal to legalise gambling on horse racing. While Connolly acknowledged there had been a cull, he was accused of attempting to downplay its scale. He told Godfrey: “All the horses have not been […]
4 of the 7 races at the Gold Coast on Saturday have fields of less than 8 starters. The Kilcoy TAB meeting boasts just a 5 race card. Atherton has only 5 races on the program too. It has field sizes of 6,6,7, 3 and 9. Gympie also has only 5 races. At least 4 […]
