Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Me the good luck charm with Mick Zammit and his son after the big race. I have known Mick Zammit for 40 years, and my parents knew his parents before that, way back to the days when Mick and Tony’s dad Sammy was a trot trainer. They have always been good people the Zammits, genuine […]
For the 8th consecutive year Queensland harness racing has returned a 7-figure loss, taking the total losses over these 8 years to over $45 million. The only good news is that the loss this has been reduced to ‘only’ a million dollars, but still it is unsustainable in the long term, and something has to […]
Irony of the week is GWIC Chief Steward Wade Birch’s pronounced declaration that hair testing of greyhounds is going to be ramped up during the Million Dollar Chase carnival. It would be a bit hard to hair test the Chief himself wouldn’t it? You could however look at the betting records when he worked as […]
Loading them into the boxes for race 4 at Sandown on Thursday night GAR. 165 – Conduct detrimental to the interests of greyhound racing An offence is committed if a person (including an official): (a) commits or omits to do any act or engages in conduct which is in any way detrimental or prejudicial to […]
His name is Les Kenyon. There you go. We don’t know who the other person involved is. Whoever they are, how about this for an idea? We put them on a lure and let the hounds hunt them at high speed unmuzzled. How do you reckon the live Baters – oops, baiters – would like […]
There has been a sensation in the final of the National Sprint Championship at the Meadows. The champ has gone down. Postman Pat started at $1.50, and even shorter on the tote. Aussie Rocks beat him out from the pink and crossed him. The postman sat on his back. Ho ho the favourite punters thought. […]
This is a supplementary report that the NZ Government asked the Racing Integrity Board to produce about how to shut greyhound racing in that country down. Why would they ask for such a thing if they didn’t intend to do it? They didn’t ask for a report into keeping the industry going did they? This […]
Anthony Bullock has finally been stood down. It’s about f**king time. He should have been gone many months ago. Now it’s time for Tasracing to send Ben Yole out too. Chainsaw is up to his neck in all this. He has to go.
These images were released by Animal Liberation Tasmania today. They were taken by a drone. The images are of Tasmanian greyhound trainer Anthony Bullock’s registered training property. See that horse’s head in the top right of the trailer? It was more likely than not trained by Ben Yole. I’m going to vomit. The bastards. Show […]
You see one horse’s head clearly. There is another below it. Also possibly a third, to your left, under the cardboard box. The long bones you see are horse’s legs. They have been cut off with chainsaws. So have the heads. The carboard boxes contained legitimately owned food for greyhounds supplied by a Queensland company […]
