Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
A former director of the state’s peak trot racing body, who has been voted out of her job four times, wants her position back – telling a court all moves to depose her were “invalid”. Sharon Cimarosti has filed Supreme Court action against Harness Racing SA, seeking both damages and her immediate reinstatement as one […]
The best way to give you an idea about what has gone on here is to start at the beginning. Here are some essential background facts. If you don’t get them all at once don’t worry too much, because we will be coming back to them over the course of the stories. Harness Racing SA […]
REMOVAL OF DIRECTOR The Members may, by resolution of 75% of Members, remove a Director before the end of the Director’s period of office, notwithstanding anything in the Constitution or any agreement between the Company and the Director. It never rains in South Australia, it only pours. First we had the civil war at Gawler […]
Three weeks ago we told you how Harness Racing SA had called a general meeting to vote to remove a board member named Sharon Cimarosti. Sharon wasn’t told why she was being removed, and no-one else really knows either, except the executioners themselves. The rumor is that it was being done so the now ex-Chair […]
GENERAL Reinsperson Ken Rogers stood down under R250(3) pending the analysis of the saliva sample taken after his initial saliva test was reported as non-negative. As reported on the night repeat offender Kenny ‘The Gambler’ Rogers has thrown another positive swab to meth. He rolled the dice on not getting caught, and lost. Addiction is […]

Ken Rogers is a drug addict. We’ve written about this pint-sized, woman hating grub on many occasions, and in particular – knowing far more than anyone should have to about meth addiction, due to relatives having problems with the gear – we have railed against HRSA’s continual acceptance of Rogers back into the sport without […]
South Australian trot driver Kenny ‘The Gambler’ Rogers is one of those sad individuals who become hooked on the dirty, illegal street drug ice and refuse to kick the habit, or can’t, and enter into a spiral that sucks them down into nothingness faster than a crocodile’s death roll ever could, and keeps pulling to […]
Integrity management standards in South Australian harness racing have plunged to such depths that the State has become a laughing stock. They don’t even test all the winners down there. Not even the ones they say they do. The Stewards summary for last night’s Globe Derby meeting shows that post-race swabs were only taken from […]
The South Australian Racing Appeals Tribunal has overturned Todd Balfour’s 5-year disqualification for pulling down the pants of a Steward and exposing him naked from the waist down, and replaced it with a 4.5 month DQ, which includes time already served. The Tribunal characterised Balfour’s actions as an assault, describing what he did as inappropriate […]
