Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
No-one is even mentioning Alenquer as a chance in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes tomorrow. They should be. All the self-proclaimed experts have written the Ballydoyle owned galloper off after he ran a dismal last in the All Star Mile. They shouldn’t. Alenquer is not a miler, and the All Star was run on a rock […]
We have a heard a lot this week about the clash of the titans Anamoe and Dubai Honour in Saturday’s Queen Elizabeth Stakes. Most people would have you believe that it’s a 2 horse race. Don’t be fooled by these fools, for it’s not. The runner from the land of the rising sun is a […]
Bramble Bay. Beautiful isn’t it? As pretty as Hiroshima a week after they dropped the bomb. Yesterday we expressed our bemusement about a $20 into $7.50 early plunge on a runner in the 2nd race at Toowoomba last night. Bramble Bay was the horse’s name. It had raced 14 times without even running a place. […]
The Jim Murdoch KC trained Bramble Bay has been the subject of an early plunge at Toowoomba tonight. $20 was available with some bookies at openers. Now it’s in to $7.50, and is firming with every turn of the board. I am buggered if I know why, because this horse is a legless walker. Bramble […]
An eagle eyed reader has raised a rather interesting question. Is that a Freemason hand signal that the Butcher Zaid Miller is making to the police who arrested him, to let them know that he is a brother? It sure looks like it doesn’t it? The QLD Police Service has long been a bastion […]
This is the police video of the arrest of Tommy Berry’s mate The Butcher last week. Whether or not Zaid Miller will be backing Tommy’s tips this weekend is unknown. For some reason the Magistrate issued an order prohibiting the result of the Butcher’s bail application. Butch’s latest bookie UpCoz will be sweating on finding […]
Race 2: TAB BENCHMARK 60 Handicap 800 metres Mr Vista- Slipped at the 500m point then bumped SUNIKI who in turn bumped the hindquarters of BONGANI which became unbalanced. Trainer W Bannerot reported to stewards that the gelding had returned showing signs of lameness post-race. A post-Race veterinary examination was undertaken with signs of […]
The 1st problem that you have when you take on Alligator Allan Endresz is that he’s a lot smarter than you, and thinks six steps ahead. The second one is that he can think on his feet like Wally Lewis you do, and can thus react to challenges posed by changed circumstances in much the […]
Rival trainer Steve Wolfe was a bit bullish on the weekend after Amelia’s Jewel beat him. He claimed the Bob Peters owned horse was a certainty in Quokka, declaring her as the best filly in Australia. I was bit silly of Wolfie I thought, and a step way too far. The best filly claim is […]
We might have suffered a blow on Saturday in the Derby due to the incompetence of the BOM predictions and Sydney’s ridiculous weather, but the news ain’t all bd. Sharp N Smart has come through the run okay, and the stable is California dreaming about the Cups. So they should be too. I still reckon […]
