Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Watch the race. How could the Stewards not push the red light and call it off after 3 strides? Why on earth did they have to interview all the jockeys to ask them if they were disadvantaged? It was blindingly obvious. These stipes are morons. Every second week they totally stuff things up, except in […]
Take a look at this. It’s the first race at the TAB meeting at Barcaldine on Saturday. Watch the rider of the horse in front, and ignore the fact that she is an apprentice, for this wasn’t rider error, it was deliberate. What is that jock looking back for? One guess and one clue. Here […]

Not sure third… Sir Barnabus? … Gee Princess Rhaenys was good late …. Yasuke was up there. Josh Fleming, race caller We all know that Brisbane on-course caller David Fowler is hopeless in a photo, but he has age as an excuse. Well sort of anyway. The much younger Josh Fleming can’t use that get […]
Racing SA has copped a hammering in the past week about the decision to race on at Gawler on Anzac Day in the wake of Dean Holland’s tragic accident. My mail out of Adelaide is the criticism is unwarranted. Those in the know say that the Gawler club consulted with Dean’s father Darren about whether […]

Attard early on the morning of race day. Used syringes were discovered in a bucket. Trainer Attard told the IIT that the syringes were used on a horse that he […]
One of the hot rumours around the traps recently has been that superstar pacer-cum-sire Lazarus was once again mired by his well-documented fertility issues this past season.
