Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Warwoven is currently $2.10 on the TAB, which is not the sort of price that anyone would want to be taking about a 2YO that has twice been tested as lame on the day before the race. It should be $10.00 and blowing, but no-one is game to make the call. Or maybe they just […]
There were a lot of very unhappy punters at Callaghan Park on Melbourne Cup day. The race club didn’t out on a tote or a TAB window, or even a machine. All there was were three bookies, none of them offering anything but win place betting, and with queues stretching some people say up to […]
Tabcorp shareholders are praising Gillon McLachlan and declaring him King after the release of its full financial year results sent the company’s share price rocketing to a 22 month high after closing the day at 88c, up from 37c a year ago. King Gil has seemingly miraculously turned a $1 360 million ($1.36 billion) loss […]
Watch this replay of race 5 at the Maitland dogs last night. This is what happens when your caller is broadcasting the race from their lounge room or the studio. The beauty of remote calling. Ain’t Gillon McLachlan’s cost cuts grand?
We have been writing for some time now about what appears to be an ongoing rort with the TAB fixed odds prices. Our contention has been that an insider at the TAB involved in setting the opening markets for the Albion Park trots has been deliberately putting up horses at inflated odds so that someone […]
QRIC currently reviewing payout error 04 June 2025 The Queensland Racing Integrity Commission (QRIC) is aware of a discrepancy between the official minor placings and associated dividends paid out for Race 2 at Doomben on Wednesday, 4 June 2025. The TAB paid out on the wrong numbers. Second was paid as third and vice versa. […]
David Fowler called the placings wrong in the controversial race at Doomben yesterday that the TAB and bookies are paying out on the wrong results. What else would you expect? To think Tabcorp/Sky chose this chook over Josh Fleming. Decision making at its very finest. Not. Editor’s note – Provoker finished third

Tabcorp’s latest move to scrap terminal hosting fees for pubs and clubs reeks of corporate freeloading—plain and simple. While the company boasts of billion-dollar revenues and “modernisation strategies,” it’s quietly gutting the income of hard-working publicans who’ve been the backbone of its retail wagering presence for decades. Let’s call it what it is: a brazen […]
By guest columnist Bernard from Bowen Early market hunters have been smashed by a sudden and silent shift from TAB, which has now pulled prices on bush and back-end meetings until raceday morning — a move that’s left both punters and rival corporates fuming.
