Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Has there ever been a horse that has started at a longer price than Light A Dragon? $2100.00 it went off at, 2099-1. It was unders. This is the worst racehorse in the world. It was thrashed by 22 lengths yesterday when it ran last in a maiden at outback Ewan. The start before on […]
If Ray ‘Dynamite’ Mason isn’t the most committed racehorse owner in the country then I don’t know who is. While 50 000 Sydney siders spent their Friday warming up for the all day Everest drink, Dynamite was on the road making the long 18 trek from Melbourne to Mitchell to be on-track to cheer his […]
Over the past few months we have highlighted a number of issues with Terry Bailey’s race calling. All trains stop at the same station. The one called Retirement. Listen to this Barry Crocker from Terry the Saint last night at Pakenham and tell us you disagree.
Bigcat was the $1.50 favorite in race 4 at Mackay yesterday, and carried the weight of most punters money. The horse was listed as racing without blinkers as it had at its two previous QLD starts. Punters around Australia placed their bets in what they believed to be the certainty that Bigcat would once […]
How does this work? Turbeau pigroots in a race at Home Hill in late August. It gets stood down by the Stewards until it completes a satisfactory barrier trial. The horse never appears to have completed one, not an official trial at least, but the embargo placed on it after the Home Hill rodeo is […]
Taylah Kennedy is racehorse owner who can’t go to the track to watcher her gee-gees go around, the reason being that in late 2022 she was warned off for not paying her trainers fees for their services. At last count her debt to Peter Moody, Mark Kavanagh and others was $128 grand. Good luck to […]
It wasn’t a very good day to be a tomato sauce taster yesterday at Mackay. There were four odds-on favorites on the eight race card. They started at $1.55, $1.45. $1.55 and $1.65. Each of the quartet got beaten. Just to rub it in three of them ran second, and the other one third. They’re cruel […]
There are no end of ways for a punter to do their money at the races. Here is yet another. The horse that buckjumped Ivy Dextress was the $1.24 favorite. Its rodeo performance saw it take no competitive part in the race. Ivy Dextress hasd been stood down pending a satisfactory trial. The punters who […]
Gday Archie, My opinion on Verdad is that trainer error has contributed to the lack of application to racing. He was a very promising horse up to distances of 1600m who, after he ran in the Aami vase at the Valley last spring and clearly didn’t stay, was foolishly backed up in the 2500m Victoria […]
These two horses that you see in the before and after pictures above are Phondle and Vampire Kisses, although we are not sure which is which in the photos. The pictures at the top are taken before they joined the stable of country QLD trainer Brendon Newport about 7-9 weeks ago, the ones below are […]
