There is a strong rumor floating around that this year may be the last for HRNSW’s flagship slot race The Eureka. It may well be true. The three year leases on the slots expire after Eureka 25, and to date there has been no move by HRNSW to renew or release them. Breeders hate the […]
So who’s the Kiwi trainer who put their hand up this time and said they administered the Levamisole? Six or eight weeks after importation, two races apart sounds more like local administration then an imported problem Could the difference be that NSW tests, as you claim is essential for integrity, every winner and the other […]

Star WA pacer Never Ending is now the $2.50 favorite to win the $2.1 million The Eureka, run at Menangle in 10 days time. This is why. You don’t see many horses run home their final quarter over 2300m in 26.3 seconds like this horse did on Saturday night in his tune up for the […]

Its and interesting night from a Eureka perspective, with 5 of the 10 contenders for the big one making an appearance across two different States. Star WA pacer Never Ending makes his eastern seaboard debut in the 2nd race at Menangle, a 2300m Free-For-All in which he takes on fellow Eureka starter Captain’s Knock and […]
A month out from grand final night and the complexion of the Eureka has changed completely. Early favorite Frankie Ferocious failed miserably in Brisbane and hasn’t been seen since. There are huge doubts about whether Jason Grimson can get him up again and firing in time for the race. The Lost Storm was high up […]
The talk of the Gold Coast track is all about a pre-dawn police raid at trainer Mel Eggleston’s place at the Gold Coast at about 4am on Sunday morning. Apparently there were more than a dozen cops involved bearing warrants who went through his house like a dose of salts until 9.00 am, and took […]
