Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Well sort of. Miki is actually the equal fastest horse ever in the world. Not that there is anything wrong with that. I strongly suspect that a leading NZ breeder who sold a Love You colt for $280 000 at last year’s Christchurch sale may have a few quality lots by Always B Miki in […]
What a great day of racing it was today in both Sydney and Melbourne. You know winter’s over when the Group 1’s start rolling, and the next seven weeks are what we wait for all year. Bring it on I say! SYDNEY First things first, wasn’t it great to be back at a proper city […]
Not Quite a Beauty, But Not Ugly Yet It Written Beauty hadn’t taken charge of Jason Collett like it did in the Sheraco and pulled itself into the ground it would almost have won the race I reckon, or finished a lot closer anyway. It wasn’t really Colletts’s fault, although you could put a proposition […]
The 8th race at the Hobart trots last night was a boatie. In fact it was one of the greatest set-up jobs that you have ever seen. Ben Yole trained 8 of the 11 starters in the race. His sole objective – and that of his principal henchman Conor Crook, Troy McDonald and now Gareth […]
A new world record was set last night at the Penrith trots. “Greatest Age Gap Between Dead Heaters in a Horse Race” is the record category. Nine years is the new record. I’d submit it to the Guinness Book of Records, if only these days it wasn’t a fee for service, money gouging rort, without […]
We sure have stepped on a hornets nest and opened Pandora’s Box and let the monsters out with out stories slamming the QRIC Stewards for their treatment of young apprentice jockey Cody Collis and the owners of the horses that he rode at the incorrect weight due to a bungle at a meeting in Bundy […]
I wonder what’s going to become of Turbo when they finally get around to finalising his positive swab to Levamisole inquiry and throw him out of the game for years? It is inevitable isn’t it? After all, how do you defend an offending swab to a bovine worm drench that is banned for use on […]
No he is not. This commentator is a bloody idiot. Tom Ison is kicking it from the bell. Look! I’m right, but so is the reader who tipped us to this abominable act by the harness racing driver Tom Ison in the 7th race at the Tamworth trots last night. Tom Ison has hocked this […]
Battling trainer Ben Loakes is a good bloke. His old man Bryan got crook, and he moved his family down to help keep him going. Matthew Rudolph is a crook. He tried to hook a vital Steward Inquiry to cover up for his crooked vet mate who was gearing horses up, and he misused his […]
Let’s go drinking in the gardens after dark, Or do some burnouts in Pedrina Park; Do you want to go shopping on the weekend, or to see a new release? No, I don’t feel like going to Warrnambool. There’s lots of things to see and do We’ve got one footy club, we used to have […]
