Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
At 7.00am this morning Autumn Glow was, according to Racenet, in Chris Waller’s stable in Melbourne. The afternoon before they had the mare as being in the Gold Coast barn of the master trainer. Now at 9.00m the champ is finally back in Sydney. It was a nice up and down the East Coast jaunt. […]
Yesterday “Australia’s Premier Horse Racing” website Racenet had the champion mare Autumn Glow being trained at Chris Waller’s stable at the Gold Coast. Overnight Racenet have made another stable switch. Now Autumn Glow is apparently being trained at Flemington. Perhaps third time lucky they might get it right. The mare is of course being trained […]
J-Mac is riding Cylinder in the Golden Slipper is he? It would be a good trick. Cylinder is a retired 6YO. The Slipper is a race restricted to 2YO’s. Nice one Daily Telegraph. If you don’t already know, J-Mac is actually riding the toppie Fireball.
I was always taught than an exclusive story meant that you broke the news and published it first. Ben Dorries claims that his tale about Greg Bennett’s return to harness racing is an ‘exclusive’. It’s not. We were the first to break the story and told you about it several weeks ago, and followed up […]
I love Crash Craddock. When I was a teenage kid I worked as a copy boy (fledging journalist) in the Sports Room of what was then Queensland’s Daily Sun. John Hartigan was the Editor, and an abrasive but hugely effective boor named Col Allan was his Chief of Staff. They both went on to become […]
We are told that one time harness racing identity and bon vivant Marshall Dobson is these days living in Manila, or somewhere nearby. I wonder if MD is into Asian men or women? Based on past form it could be a bit each way. Somewhat like the bloke himself. Bon Scott was too. What Australian […]
The Age published this story yesterday. My wife Maggie (painted above) reckons I told you and her the same story on Monday. Know what? I think she is right. They’re a bit slow aren’t they? You always hear it here first. No Care, And Zero Responsibility Sees a Poor Young Dog Get Hung Greyhound Baba […]
Brittany, Mick, Ryan, Bronte, TOC and Josh, with Dan Milecki calling. The dream team reunites. It’s not the horses who are going to be good at the Hunter Cup. Welcome back Britt. We’ve missed you. You too Mick. Kia Ora!
Story by Jon Tuxworth: The Mercury Sunday’s Hobart Cup has been rocked by controversy with an enquiry launched into how starting position barriers were not placed in the correct position for the city’s biggest annual race. Tasracing has released a statement confirming the race distance was “marginally less” than the scheduled 2400m distance as a […]
How great it was to see Jason Bonnington at Cranbourne tonight. The poor bugger doesn’t look to be that well. I half wonder if he hasn’t had some health issues. But he was in his usual inimitable form. Anyone who loves the trots as much as my mates and I do is alright by me […]
