Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Gary Jubelin catches killers. Superman leaps talls buildings in a single bound. I stop trains. Yesterday I had my last on the Hayes trained topweight Autissiodorum in the 4th at Bendigo. I was counting the cash at the 200 metre mark. And then just as I started to get out of my chair to perform […]
See this man circled in the picture? The chap in the surfer t-shirt on the phone? That’s the Wood Man. He’s Zeljko’s man. Zeljko Ranogajec is the world’s biggest gambler, a man who turns over of billions of dollars on totes around the world every year. Ranogajec has men on every race track that he […]
Hanging Rock is one of the most picturesque race tracks in Australia. It is also the scene of one of the most disturbing fictional events in our nation’s literary history, the disappearance of a group of schoolgirls and their teacher while out on a summer’s picnic on Valentine’s Day.

Next you get Frank to nominate 4 of your […]

Saintly Rose was backed from $15 into $10 in the third at Terang today. She was home at the 100m mark. And then this happened. Is it any wonder that all horse players die broke?
Race 8 at Albion Park last night. The pre-post favourite is owned in by our old mates from Summit Bloodstock and Luke McCarthy, and is trained and driven by the McCarthy’s man in the north Ricky Thurlow, all three mates of the Albion Park CEO. It’s name is Shadow Minister, and it is drawn in […]
