Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The ABC has obtained vision showing multiple greyhounds, including puppies, apparently being kicked and punched by a person on a property south-east of Adelaide. Warning: This story contains content that may distress some readers. The vision, filmed by a drone operator, has been provided to the ABC. Notes accompanying the vision claim it was filmed over […]
Lisa Rasmussen loves her dogs does she? Blokes who batter their wives tell them that they love them while they are bleeding to. What you have seen on the ABC video tells you everything you need to know. The only good news is that the Rasmussen’s won’t have any dogs to ‘love’ after today. Or […]
Tony Rasmussen is South Australia’s leading greyhound trainer. I doubt that he will be for much longer. You’re about to see Tony on the news. It won’t be pretty viewing. Goddamn ugly actually. Remember that you heard it hear first.
Dear Industry On behalf of HRSA I’m pleased to advise TAB market share for Harness Racing in South Australia will increase this financial year (FY24) for the first time in almost a decade. The new rate of market share is 8.248% (up from 6.906%) which equates to 19.432% growth Year on Year (YoY). This represents […]
It’s wonderful to hear that harness racing’s share of TAB revenue has increased from 6.9% to 8.2%, especially given the moron that they’ve got running the joint. I don’t know if it says more about the skills of the tr0t boss Best Wishes Dean, or about the ineptitude of the folk in charge of other […]
Some months ago we wrote extensively about what we, then and now, considered to be the unlawful and utterly unjust removal of Director Sharon Cimarosti (pictured above) from the board of Harness Racing South Australia (HRSA). At the time we described it as a travesty, and warned that it would not end there. We were […]
Hi Archie In reply to Syd of SA. In 1984 the Lordship stakes and Ladyship stakes were worth $10 000 in prizemoney each. In 2022 they have been reduced or dwindled to $8,000. A basket of goods and services valued at $10 000 in calendar year 1984, would in calendar year 2022 cost $34,639.46. Total […]
Hello Arch It’s Syd from south Australia. In reply to Bill from the Barossa. I whole heartily agree with the prizemoney increases being a sleight of hand. First any increase is great for the game, but let us put reality into the equation here. Average prizemoney in winter in SA per meeting in the past […]
A fortnight and a half ago the South Australian Treasurer, a bloke named Stephen Mullighan, announced that the racing industry’s share of the POC tax would increase from 10% of the 15% collected – that is, a tenth of the take – up to 20%, meaning that racing now gets a fifth of the rake. […]
Dear Peter Profit SA harness racing is currently sitting on 6% of overall wagering turnover in the State. The much vaunted improved stake money is a sleight of hand. Go back to school and learn some simple arithmetic. Race handicapping Australia wide just a joke. There are no leaders of any standing within the industry […]
