Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Travis Noonan posted this on Twitter. It all makes sense too. Bar for one thing. Treasurethe Moment was supposed to the best horse in Australia many said. But she had been beaten at her past 5 starts, all of them of course in top class affairs. The jury is out. —————————————————– Seeing a lot of […]
RACE 1:BOSS BUILDING MAINTENANCE QTIS THREE-YEARS-OLD MAIDEN PLATE 1800 M Correct weight was delayed to allow stewards and T. Brooker to view the patrol footage of the start and to ascertain whether ROCKING FROCKS had been afforded a fair start. After viewing the official footage, it was established as the start was effected ROCKING […]
Don’t be fooled by the name, you’re just being sexist. Ohope is a beautiful little coastal town in the Bay of Plenty. In the space of 4 starts this Kiwi filly Ohope Wins has gone from running 2nd in a 1600m Maiden at Waikato to winning the Group 2 Sir Patrick Hogan over 2000m at […]

You can’t say Damien Lane didn’t deserve the 17 meeting suspension he copped for taking out Unit Five, Eurocanto and Alibaba in the Blue Diamond. What you do have to ask is that if Lane was prepared to risk a suspension to get out, then why the hell did he wait so long? By the […]
Cluden Park, a place like no other. Ain’t that the truth. The races in Townsville were abandoned today after a 40mm deluge of rain flooded the back straight. That’s the official story anyway, and in part it is true. After that amount of rain the track almost certainly wouldn’t have been safe to race on, […]
Now I want to be crystal clear from the start, just in case the hyper aggressive NSW lawyer for the ice addicted woman basher Andrew O’Keefe decides to to channel a crystal ball reader and calls me folksy. It is not true of course, but even if it were it would be better than being […]
A former Racing Victoria investigator resigned from the organisation, in part, due to frustrations about the alleged lack of a thorough investigation into the first cluster of Formestane positives. Betsy has spoken to the former employee of RV’s integrity department, who asked to remain anonymous. The investigator made a series of bombshell claims, including: – Several […]
