Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
@Nickmartin555 Can’t believe you only charge $200/week Dicko @dickosmailbag Sometimes I think the same thing mate. The art of the self-spruik has been around forever, since the days of David claiming to have slain Goliath with a slingshot and running all the way through The secret to the spruik’s success is showing the customer the […]

On Friday the Sir G-crew’s ignorance […]
Have you heard of this one before? Another horse’s tail getting wrapped around another jockeys boot, causing that rider’s foot to be pulled from the stirrup, which in turn made their mount lose several lengths? That’s what happened to Roth ‘N’ Bell’s rider Morgan Butler in the 8th race at Innisfail yesterday. The horse lost […]
