Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Gimme No Lies, and Keep Your Hands to Yourself Which horsewoman turned racing media manager associated with a speedster who won 16 races from 18 starts has lodged, or is about to lodge, a sexual harassment claim against a boss of a major yearling sales company, with the allegations being made said not to be […]
The hitherto healthy 4-year-old mare Overwatch returns to the mounting yard at Cluden Park on Sunday after running second last in a Maiden and drops dead. Gee that’s normal isn’t it? The Stewards panel chaired by D. Griffitths says the mare died of a cardiac arrest, aka a heart attack. But there is no record […]
Here is the guts of the Australian Turf Club v Racing decision in the Supreme Court. It’s extremely complicated, and I had to read it ten times or more before I understood it, so I have reduced it to the most simple term possible and and am using a mix of the Geebung dialect and […]
So Racing Minister Tim Mander has appointed the proud Sydney man Matthew McGrath, a member of the board of the Cronulla Sharks, as the Chairman of Racing Queensland? What next? Michael Ennis as coach of the Maroons? Nicho Hynes as Captain? Mad Sharks supported Scott Morrison as QLD Premier? Changing the State capital from Brisbane […]

We are absolutely blessed in Australia to have such fantastic race callers, particularly so at the trots. Richard Bell in Perth is the Fortune Teller. Hill is a great judge of pace, tempo and form of what a horse can do, and regularly calls the winner up to 1000m out. Never misses a photo either. […]
Shithole of Dreams Isn’t NT racing flying? Not. They have a 5 card program in Darwin today. Four of the five races have only 5 runners. The other one has 7. Not an each-way paying the place on three runners to be seen. How good is that for turnover? Not at all. It’s lucky the […]
Hi Archie, I do of course welcome your contribution, posted on LGHR, hoping that it may encourage others to consider issues about ‘insider trading’ on racing gambling. As you know, I accepted the probability that ‘no smoke, no fire’ would be the consensus finding in the Movin Out matter — in particular that assessment by […]
Daniel Munce is an oxygen thief. An absolute piece of sh*t. How else can you possibly describe a 48 year old bloke who threatens to kill his elderly father, smears his own excrement all over a watchhouse wall, and then assaults a female police officer?
