Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Dear Peter Profit The report into Ben Yole is a fantastic step forward for our local industry. My concern is the members of the independent stewards panel who have been appointed to investigate Yole further. They are Mr John Hackett and Mr Larry Wilson from QLD, and Mr Barry Delaney from Victoria. The concern I […]
There was yet another one horse race and walkover at Hobart last night as a result of the mass withdrawal of Ben Yole stable runners, making it the third this weekend. This led to an unusual spectacle as the winner of the walkover – the only horse in it, Agouda Ruler – paced along in […]
Archie Here is exactly how Ben Yole can feed the horses. The figures above are he and the horse’s owner’s winnings for just the two months that the Tasmanian government sat on the Murrihy Report. I have lost all respect for Ric McIntosh. Integrity IS the winner Belle from Burnie
Archie Just a personal opinion, but out of all the drivers in on this Ben Yole fix do we really think it’s fair to consider punishing Corey Bell, when he is the only person capable of putting a stop to the Yole nightmare having witnessed both concentration camps Yole’s in Tasmania and Yole/Walters in Victoria, […]
In a clear sign that Harness Racing NSW has moved on Ben Yole, all of his stable runners at Leeton today were withdrawn from their scheduled races, leaving the first race a one horse walkover after Yole’s nine horses were scratched. The race was run with the one non-Yole horse as the only horse in […]
In what has becoming a fast moving feast following the release of the Murrihy report, all Ben Yole horses have been scratched from tonight’s Launceston meeting, presumably (but not certainly) by the Stewards. The move follows notices issued by Tasracing earlier this morning banning Ben Yole, Mark Yole, Nathan Ford and every other participant named […]
One issue that Ray Murrihy was restrained by the Tasmanian rules and laws from properly exploring was Ben Yole’s practice of taking no longer wanted racehorses to his mate Anthony Bullock’s place to be shot in the head, sliced up with chainsaws, and fed to the hounds. Here is what he found in the absence […]
The Controlling Body or Stewards may reject a nomination without assigning any reason Australian Harness Racing Rule 23(1)(13) As you can see above, the principal racing authorities in each State – HRNSW, HRV, HRSA, RWAA and Racing QLD or the QRIC – and/or the Stewards in each of those jurisdictions has the right to reject […]
The world class capital of racing integrity – Queensland – has had a couple of interesting additions to the ranks in recent years, both of them with links of various degrees to the Ben Yole scandal. Harness racing steward Steve Shinn was formerly the Chief Steward in Tasmania, before departing under a cloud sometime in […]
Hey Archie, The Murrihy report just highlights what we in the industry already knew. The biggest disgrace is the so called drivers who continue to drive for him. They should all be named and shamed. How they can be that loose with their morals and integrity is astounding. They should hang there head in shame […]
