Jason ‘Stubby’ Holder is South Australia’s leading jockey. He is also a liar, a trickster and a cheat. And he is a koala too, a protected species. On the 9th of December, after he had ridden trackwork at Morphetville, the Stewards asked him to come to their office at the track and provide them with a […]
Did you watch the postponed Port Pirie Cup on Tuesday night? If not, you can watch it below. Greg Rogers, the driver of the leader Culture King, should have his head read. This race was run over a distance of 2530m, which is a long way at the trots. In this length of race the […]
