Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
How the hell did Kyle-Wilson Taylor escape being charged over the fight with Noel Callow in the jockeys room? Clearly Callow was the aggressor, there is no doubt of that. He chased KWT into the room and shoved him hard in the back. Then the pair tussled and fell to the floor. There is nothing […]
QRIC currently reviewing payout error 04 June 2025 The Queensland Racing Integrity Commission (QRIC) is aware of a discrepancy between the official minor placings and associated dividends paid out for Race 2 at Doomben on Wednesday, 4 June 2025.

We told you Rockhampton trainer Tom Smith was a koala and we were right. The penalty handed down to him on 30 April for a cobalt positive proves it. It’s not the 12 month suspension that is in issue, or the fact that it was suspended. The issue is the way in which the sentence […]
The replay below is of the start of race 3 at Albion Park last night, the Group 3 $50 000 2YO Breeders Classic for fillies. If you call it a start.

The man in the photo is Jedd Naum. Apparently he has lots of goodies. $18 000 of them after the fixed race at Marburg the other day we are told. They say he bought a new phone with the spoils. Have a Second Bite Stipes – But Be Careful, It’s Hot Threw the old one […]
Jockey Melissa Campbell was badly injured in a fall at Innisfail last December when her mount Ancient Style collapsed under her, and she and hasn’t ridden in a race since. One would have expected an inquiry into the reasons for Ancient Style’s collapse and Campbell’s corresponding fall would have been conducted as a matter of […]
We felt the track was safe but it was the visibility and the kickback which ultimately resulted in the remainder of the card being cancelled – QLD Chief Steward Josh Adams Somewhat bizarrely given what appeared obvious to all, the Stewards wanted the riders to race on at Eagle Farm yesterday, claiming that the track […]
The most inane race series in Christendom concluded at Redcliffe last night. I speak of course of the Trot Rods. Two men and their dog made up the madding crowd. The drone shots made us dizzy, helmet cam gave us a view up horses asses, and the screen was cluttered with so much crap that […]

Scrubby, drawn in gate 2, had not won a race since August 2023 and had been beaten by an aggregate margin of 247.1 meters at its previous five starts.
