Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
You called any suggestion of a confirmed sighting as a cruel hoax, didn’t you? Yes. You just decided that you didn’t accept their evidence, is that the position? No, I decided that their evidence wasn’t sufficient to get to the level of it being a confirmed sighting, in my view. So again, it was any […]
In highly unusual circumstances, it has been revealed that the author of The Teachers Pet podcast, award winning journalist Hedley Thomas, this week gave evidence at the murder trial of the accused Chris Dawson under what is known as section 128 certificate, which is legal protection against self-incrimination.

Isn’t it strange that David Murray, the journalist reporting on the Teacher’s Pet author Hedley Thomas’s evidence at the trial of Chris Dawson for the alleged murder of his wife Lyn, does not disclose that he is the brother in law of the witness. It is rather dishonest isn’t it? Murray has a clear conflict […]
The consummate professional. If Bon-Bon spent less time feeding his face and more time studying the form he might actually be competitive one day. A couple of months ago Jason Bonnington, ever the smart arse and the boot licker, for reasons of his own decided to go the bash on peterprofit.com and yours truly on […]
All the ‘experts’ on racing TV are making excuses for Thomas Stockdale’s ride on Chief Altonus in the 5th at Caulfield. There is no excuse.

Someone told me the other day that I knew shit from clay, and was making up any involvement in NZ Harness Racing. The same bastards said I didn’t know Julia Gillard either. Or Aunty Helen. When’s the last time they ever high-fived a Prime Minister hey? Or gave the Chairman of the Auckland Trotting Club […]

Listen to this short 33 second excerpt from David Fowler’s widely listened to weekly AM racing radio show (total audience 237, based on 4 listeners per household including 2 kids in each with headphones on watching YouTube videos) a month ago. After yesterday’s no rain for 18 days and a half heavy track debacle, I […]
Isn’t it just great to be taught racing history by people who don’t know it? The picture above is number 2 in the so-called Mr Racing – aka Mr Prior Knowledge of the Fine Cotton Ring In – Bart Sinclair’s top 5 Ipswich Cup winners, as related by ‘racing writer’ Nick Tucker in today’s Courier-Mail.

Bonno got 11.1% of the early quaddie. It paid $71.00 for a dollar, meaning that he collected $7.90. I hope he didn’t spend it all in one place. He had $10 each way on Something Bettor which ran 2nd and paid $2.10, so there is another $21.00. Running total $28.90. And he got the trifecta […]
