Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
You might have noticed that certain hitherto highly successful harness racing and thoroughbred stables have dropped off the pace recently, and are no longer getting the results that they were not too long ago. We are told that’s at least in part, and maybe whole, because the power stack of performance enhancing peptides that they […]
Looking further into the beaten run of $1.33 favorite Major Hot on Saturday night I was startled but unsurprised to see that the horse is owned by prominent harness racing and wagering identity Sam Treccase. I knew that name. Treccase hit the news in QLD about a decade ago, when he and his brother Robert […]
Dr Harry, who is very quick with a quip, declared after by her standards pedestrian performance on the tip last week that: Dr Georgia needs to put her clothes back on! I put the proposition to the Doc, who equally as quickly shot back “Doctor Harry can go and get f**ked!” Fair enough it was […]
In sentencing Noel Callow to two x 5 month disqualifications for his behavior in Darwin in 2024, the Stewards placed great emphasis on the jockey’s record of conduct related offending over the past three decades, and in particular relied on Callow’s rap sheet which reads: 30 July 2025 (Darwin): Fined under AR 228(a) for prejudicial […]
I am under strict instructions from Dr Georgia Whiting not to talk her tipping prowess up this week, for fear of putting the cool on her selections. So will say nothing other than that as usual the Doc has done her form in the nude.
See that man (circled) behind the barriers watching the start of race 5 at Mt Isa last Thursday? You know, the race we wrote about yesterday in which two runners were loaded into the wrong gates and started from transposed barriers? The one after which the Club Starter was shown vision of the start and […]
When reviewing Stewards patrol film vision of the event it was established that TORONADO ROUGE (Jockey S McGovern) and ROGUE ‘N’ READY (Apprentice N Palmer) after being loaded last into the barriers simultaneously, had started from transposed barriers. It was confirmed that TORONADO ROUGE had started from barrier seven, and ROGUE ‘N’ READY had started from […]
The adage that there is no such thing as free money was proven true again last night, as cheap multi hunters chasing the short priced Emma Stewart trained favorites for an easy kill went down in a screaming heap at Melton as three went down in the space of just 4 races. Apollo Storm was […]
Hi Catherine (Clarke, QRIC Commissioner) Is animal welfare no longer a priority for QRIC? Judging by the actions or should I say the non action by stewards at today’s Eagle Farm it seems animal welfare is far from a priority. Firstly in the mounting yard before race four Jackson Morris after mounting Crafty Eagle unnecessarily […]
Fresh off another 6 winners last weekend – including her special at $26 -Australia’s deadliest tipster Dr Georgia Whiting is back with some more winners for us this Saturday. Can the good doctor do it again? She has tipped six winners twice in the past 5 weekends, so why not?
