Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
It’s a great story. What a shame it’s a load of crap. She is blaming Johnny Scorse for all her problems. All the poor bastard did was have and a roadie and a cigarette on the way home. We all feel hugely sorry for Chynna about what happened to her. It may well have been […]
Normal footage (above). Stewards footage (below). Huh? How did Chief Steward Crayons decide that Kenji’s horse got a fair start if he couldn’t see the head on footage? Or did he? Race 2: REMEMBERING MARK FLINT CLASS 4 HANDICAP (1300m) Correct weight was delayed allowing Stewards to view the start regarding Jockey K. Yoshida […]
There were 6 jockeys riding at Mt Isa today. Racing Queensland programmed races with fields of up to 10 starters. Six jocks can’t ride 10 horses at once, so of course you know what happened. Eight declared runners were late scratched because there was no-one to ride them. Other horses were permitted to be ridden […]

Athletes who perform an appropriate cool-down are less likely to become injured. Muscular and skeletal injuries have been found to increase when the cool down procedure is neglected. Injuries are decreased significantly when the cool down is performed for an adequate amount of time compared to only a short period of time.[14] Well the science […]
It’s the year 2023 and a lot of the richest people in the world wear jeans and t-shirts to work. The last vestiges of the stuffy colonial era of suits and ties are disappearing faster than the dodo did. But still in a strange little place called Melbourne the raj clings on. Men must wear […]
