Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
How do the programmed conditions of a feature race get altered AFTER acceptances have been drawn? That’s not cricket is it? RocknRoll Nitro go beaten by just 3 meters in the final of the King Island Pacing Championship. With the extra 20m start he was supposed to get it’s fair to say that he would […]
There were nine races at the Burnie Trots last night. Seven races were worth $9700 in prizemoney, one was worth $14 000, and the other $5 950. Horses from the Ben ‘Chainsaw’ Yole stable contested 8 of the 9 races. In three of these races Chainsaw trained the entire field. He prepared 8 of the […]
ARCHIE THERE ARE COUPLE OF THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE HE IDEAL CASE. THERE HAVE BEEN 31 HORSES THAT QUALIFIED THE LAST SIX MONTHS IN TASSIE THAT HAVE NOT GONE THE REQUIRED TIME SET OUT IN THE STUPID POLICY THAT WAS PUT TOGETHER BY STEVEN SHINN BEFORE HE COPPED THE HUSHED UP FLICK. […]
This is the last race on the feature Devonport Cup program. Look at the name of the trainers. It’s easy, for there is only one. Chainsaw. Aka Ben Yole. The bum has got the whole field. It jumps in a couple of minutes. I reckon Yole might win it, don’t you? What a great advertisement […]
This Tasmanian Director of Racing Justin ‘Case’ is off his nut, or at least when it comes to making ruling about things he clearly knows sweet Fanny Adams about he gives every sign of being so. Look at this crap at the top, which are his reasons for allowing the unqualified odds on favourite Hes […]

The objections were lodged pursuant to Australia Harness Racing Rule(AHRR) 175(1): ‘A person who questions the eligibility of horse to start in a race may […]
If the Emma Stewart trained pacer He’s Ideal is truly eligible to start in this weekend’s Devonport Pacing Cup, then I’ll eat my hat. On fair read of the Tasmanian control body the Office of Racing Integrity’s rules and policies it can’t possibly be. Here are the reasons why, spelled out in clear terms. 1. […]
There were 8 races on the program at Burnie in Tasmania on Friday night. Collectively they were worth just a tick under $51 000. Ben ‘Chainsaw’ Yole collected most of it. It wasn’t hard, given that he trained 64 of the 75 starters on the card. This is ridiculous. Tassie harness racing is right now […]
There is strong mail out of Tassie about three things that will be of interest to punters around Australia. 1. A new local rule is about to be introduced that caps the maximum number of starters from any one stable in a single race to four (4). 2. Emma Stewart has purchased, or is purchasing, […]
