Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
A leading Queensland jockey who was injured in a fall at Doomben three years ago is suing for more than $2.4m, claiming actions of racecourse staff caused his horse to take fright. Champion jockey Jim Byrne, 51, fractured his right knee when he fell from two-year-old racehorse Kavak, during race seven at Doomben Racecourse on […]

If Nash Rawiller isn’t a genius in the saddle, then Santa must come at Easter. Take a look at this split screen replay of his winning ride on Atlantic King in the 5th at Warwick Farm on Wednesday. It doesn’t get any better than this. Split screen vision of @nashhot's scene stealing ride on @mattydunnracing's […]
No she’s not mate. You are. David Reynolds was the golden child of On The Bit Racing. It says as much about him as it does about them. Accused DV abuser training on a stay. Absolute dickhead and grub. As guilty as sin. And here he is. Flying isn’t he? It ain’t so easy without […]

Merv Butterworth before he started getting spray tans and botox. If I was punching so far above my weight with a gorgeous wife like Meg I would too. No woman likes a handicap. Especially a honey. They reckon he’s been doing 4 hours at the gym a day while his champ has been in the […]
It’s never boring at the races. Race 2 at Doomben was delayed today while police chased a car thief. They got him at the 850m mark. I wonder what he backed? And doubt that he will be collecting for a while if it wins. Further Update Race 2 is still delayed. There is a second […]
I bet you have never seen a flat racing gallops track like Glorious Goodwood before. That’s because we don’t have any. It looks bizarre on paper, but this course is simply brilliant, especially from the 2 mile start. The horses jump from where the yellow two mile barrier is marked, and turn gently to the […]
The Goodwood Cup has just been won and run. It was one of the greatest races I have ever seen, and I have seen plenty. This had everything. It was almost as good as the Saintly, Filante, Nothing Like A Dane and Big O clashes back in the mid-nineties, and that’s huge praise. Stradivarius is […]
