Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
In a most unusual, and somewhat questionable development, members of the Cairns Jockey Club who were physically present at last night’s AGM have voted by a show of hands to defer the final count of the ballot for the positions of President and committee members until the 25th of November 2026, a delay of over […]
On Monday 12 October an article was published on peterprofit.com concerning horse trainer Billy Healey. In the article – which was on the same day permanently removed – we made certain allegations about Mr Healey’s behavior toward a stable employee and regarding the welfare of one of his horses. Although our story was published in […]
Mount Isa trainer Jay Morris is in the enviable position of having two of the best bush sprinters in Queensland in his stable, Revolt and Great Cosmic. Revolt has won 10 of its 12 starts under Morris’s care, with its only defeats for him coming when he travelled to Brisbane for the Battle of the […]

Jaddaf was sold for $375 000 at the 2023 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale. That was no surprise, for the then colt was a half-brother to the smart sprinter Chain Of Lightning, who had won the Tristarc and the Cockram the spring before, and started well in the betting for the Golden Eagle. She later […]
The final field for The Everest has been announced. It is going to be a great race. But they might as well engrave Ka Ying Rising’s name on the trophy now. Tempted is the only danger. The stars Jimmy and Jolie vie for third. The only real question is whether Ka Ying breaks the track […]
