Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Paulele made it seven wins from 18 starts when he added the Group 2 Schillaci Stakes to his form sheet on Saturday and he deserves a Group 1 win. I can see him getting that coveted victory on Friday week in the Manikato Stakes. He only beat second-tier horses in the Schillaci, but what is […]
Murphy’s Blu Boy was the fastest horse in the world up to five furlongs, which is 1000m. But he couldn’t get two strides past that. This bloke looked like a bullet up the thousand. He won his Maiden on debut at Ipswich over 800m by 6.5 lengths, then won a 2YO over 900m at the […]
We wrote the story about Chinny Boom 5 days ago, declaring it a star. The mainstream media don’t pinch our stories do they? Much. Trenton Akers wrote this below on Sunday https://www.racenet.com.au/news/not-for-sale-freak-north-queensland-prospect-chinny-boom-is-brisbane-bound-as-owners-fend-off-offers-20221009 And then David Fowler talked it on Monday too. I keep telling you that you hear it first. Hope you believe me now. […]
No, not about the boat race that this was. About the owners of the winner. In the Summit Bloodstock colours for Aaron Bain? How does that work? In ways that are never written on paper. Thank God for keyboard warriors hey?
What a hell of a mess Mother Nature has wreaked upon Sydney racing. Thanks to the brilliant stewardship of V’Landys the sport in NSW is awash with cash. PVL is putting the profits back into racing. Prizemoney for the Spring Carnival is through the roof. But then rain pours down and bursts it. It was […]
CAULFIELD Race 7 no 7 – Anamoe Keep looking at the form out of the Underwood if you like, but you are wasting your time. The best young male horse since the Big O will brain them all. This boy is a champion. Race 9 no 3 Converge/no 6 Hilal The Toorak is a cracker […]
Lost in all the hoopla surrounding Alligator Blood’s walk, crawl, sprint win in the Underwood last week was the seemingly disappointing run in the race of Mr Brightside, who only a fortnight ago was being talked about as a leading contender for Cox Plate glory. I will be happy if I am wrong, but I […]
Well known former Tennis QLD chief Geoff Quinlan worked at Racing Queensland for three and a half years. He started with the organisation in September 2019 The usual redundancy arrangement in State Government jobs – the redundancy scheme that applies to all non-executive staff at Racing QLD – is the payment of 7 weeks salary […]
There were three horses pre-race swabbed at the Rockhampton races yesterday. One in race 3. Price $19.00. And two in race 6. Prices $21.00 and $81.00. Gee that was a great use of scarce resources wasn’t it? A bit like wearing board shorts and a singlet in the snow.
As you know I have been spruiking Sharp ‘N’ Smart as a Spring Carnival winner for almost 6 months now, and kick off is this Saturday at Randwick in the Gloaming Stakes. The stars have all aligned. Or more precisely, the brilliant Kiwi 3YO’s form has been well and truly franked. Mr Maestro won the […]
