Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
What a wonderful promo the TAB is offering on the Australian Cup final at The Meadows tonight. $5.00 about Tim Zoo winning, maximum bet 10 bucks. Sensational Gillon, just crackerjack. You can get $7.50 about the greyhound on almost every corporate, and $10.00 on Betfair. D’oh! A ring a ding ding, Gilly’s the promo unders […]
Tasked with cleaning up racing in Tasmania, respected integrity official Sean Carroll says his top priority is to rebuild the confidence of the racing public and racing participants in the Apple Isle – Sean Carroll last week on Racenet It’s fair to say there hasn’t been a lot of confidence in Tasmanian racing. I can […]
Here’s Tabcorp Chief Executive Gillon McLachlan at today’s Hobart Cup. It’s nice of him to give the opposition a free kick. The Lads say good on you Gil.
Archie I read your article and don’t necessarily disagree, however as a frequent Melton attendee I am hoping at least on the (few) big nights there will be a pop up tote that will generate enough turnover to pay staff members wages. This is to allow the (Melton) locals attending to spend a dollar or […]
High-profile Victorian racing identity and former race caller Bryan Martin publicly bemoaned the closure of the on-course tote at the Sale race meeting yesterday, telling Tabcorp via Twitter (X) that it needs to read the room.

What you see above is what appears on the TAB website and in their form guides for the feature race at Warrnambool on Tuesday. Ignore it, for its wrong in every respect. Major Share is not a 7-year-old, he is four. He is not by Sacred Falls out of Flighttime. Overshare is Major Share’s sire […]
The price setter at the TAB was up to their old tricks in the Be Good Johnny Sprint at Albion Park on Saturday night. Wasa Heatseeker is a real good horse who had won 3 from 4 since coming to QLD, and in his win two starts back had run a super fast mile in […]
The feedback we received from the story we published earlier in the week about the TAB’s wording of the bonus offer was mixed, with some readers believing we were correct in our interpretation of the offer and others saying we were a bloody idiot who misunderstood what it said.
