Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Alright Albert Einstein, you are living in South Australia and own pacers, and you want to run them at Port Pirie. Please explain in layman’s terms which race you are going to put them in, and why, and how the grading and handicapping works. Waiting … waiting …… waiting ….. I’m no Albert Einstein, but […]
A week ago I wrote about the moral dilemma of bagging a race cheat who is dying of cancer. I didn’t know whether it was right or wrong. Well the race cheat has answered the question. A cheat is a cheat whether they are sick or well, and a cheat who doubles down on his […]
Marten’s Pride was backed from $71 into $19 in the 2nd race at Globe Derby on Monday. Driver Dean Girardi left it very late. Caller Jim Jacques thought he’d missed. Jimmy jammed it up. He was wrong. Praise the lord say the punters.
Remember the tale we told you about how Gaita Pullicino switched her drive after the markets had been set last Tuesday at Globe Derby, and pulled off a big plunge? Well that was only part 1 of the story. The horse that she was originally set down to drive on Tuesday – the one that […]
Well they can’t afford the swabs you see Jeffrey This may sound incredible, but over the past 17 days the gallops Stewards in South Australia have gone seven consecutive thoroughbred meetings without pre-race blood testing a single horse. Seven in a row! Port Lincoln, Oakbank, Morphetville, Naracoorte, Strathalbyn, Port Lincoln, Murray Bridge. Exactly 50 races […]

First you get your husband Frank a trainer’s license, and pretend that he actually prepares the horses, when in reality everyone knows that just like the Belinda-Luke baloney it’s you who really does. Next you get Frank to nominate 4 of your […]
The picture you see was taken from the website of the Adelaide Advertiser, the South Australian State Newspaper, at 2.45a.m. Eastern Standard Time today. No-one in Australia is vaccinated. It is all just a conspiracy, and a pack of Government lies. That jab you got wasn’t a vax, and the second one wasn’t either. It […]
This Oakbank stoush over jumps racing is a beauty. Let me explain it for you in simple terms. Successive South Australian governments have pandered to the loony fringe of vegans and porn actors who want to ban all types of racing, and aimed at low hanging fruit by trying to knock out the jumps first. […]
Harness Racing South Australia has just $122 657 in the bank. That is less than the total of the organisation’s monthly prize money commitments, without adding on wages and bills due to be paid. The organisation is existing hand to mouth, and is totally reliant on the monthly checks that Tabcorp pays it as its […]
This is an extract from Acting Chief Steward Graham Loch’s address to the people of the trots as published in Harness Racing South Australia’s 2020/21 Annual Report. It is a bald faced lie. There was indeed a harness racing driver who tested positive to an illicit substance at an SA harness race meeting in the […]
