Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
https://www.facebook.com/harnessracingunhinged/videos/1275849073361248/ This innocent young looking Asian ‘bloodstock agent’ Victoria Wang has purchased a large number of pacers from New Zealand to take over and ‘race’ in China. It’s total bullshit. I am not 100% certain why the Chinese are buying standardbreds, but I am 100% certain that it is not to race as V. Wang […]
Watch out the back behind the barriers. This wasn’t supposed to happen in the 5th at Gordonvale yesterday. Lucky the horse didn’t run back around into the field isn’t it? Oops.
I very much doubt it. If you know what I am talking about, then I am sure you would too. Good blokes one and all in my opinion. But I am not sure the opposition leader would agree The $1.3mil Club Lounge is open at Melton. A great partnership between Harness Racing Victoria & our […]
Young rider Dan McGillivray went down at Beaudesert yesterday afternoon in race 6. He was airlifted to hospital. His colleagues were so worried about him that they elected not to ride after he fell, and the meeting was abandoned. Fortunately while McGillivray has suffered serious injuries he has survived relatively intact. This is like a […]
Brett Murray is not a real good jockey. In 10 seasons he has ridden just 83 winners, at a strike rate of 4.3%. Kavish Chowdhoory (pictured below) is a good jock, a real good one, far better than B. Murray. He has ridden 188 winners that won double the money that Murray’s have in just […]
Peter Foster, pictured 50m down the road from our joint. Peter Foster got offered a free ticket to see the real Wolf of Wall Street, a bloke named Jordan Belfort, do a speech about how “share his insights on the power of persuasion and how to become a successful salesperson” This was our favorite dodgy […]
It’s no wonder Jim Murdoch is smiling. I don’t feel so bad about him getting me kicked out of QCAT now. Or only a little bit anyway. But always remember Sir, just like Desleigh, those who laugh last laugh the longest. DECISION Racing Integrity Act 2016, Section 252AH Review application number RAP-6 Name: Desleigh Forster Panel […]
We have written before about the incredible success of young Rockhampton trainer Nick Walsh. Now he has done even better. With his winners at Rockhampton on Sunday and at Thangool yesterday Walsh has surpassed his previous record, and lifted his already amazing strike rate beyond the 50% mark for the season. Walsh has now trained […]
The growing preponderance of preferential barrier draws on Victorian metro meetings since the National Ratings system was introduced harbours interesting origins. For years – even decades – there’s been an unverified, almost patriarchal belief that making races more even encourages wagering interest, which raises turnover and increases stakemoney. And, like many things in life, there […]
I have always had trouble comprehending what Jason Bonnington is on about when he gets on his high horse making pronouncements about the state of harness racing and how to improve it, as if he is some sort of super wise sage. Today is no exception. It appears to me that that what Bonnington is […]
