Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
For the past few months we have been telling anyone who will listen that the Bundaberg greyhound track is unsafe and presents a danger to racing animals, and backed our assertions up with facts and figures about injuries sustained by dogs at the course, particularly on the turns. Racing Queensland and the QRIC agree, and […]
It’s bright and early on Monday morning after the Weetwood meeting, and the minutes earlier bustling Clifford Park trackwork has suddenly turned into a ghost town. The Stewards have arrived bearing drug test kits they intend to use to take samples from licensed workers. When they showed up people scattered in every direction, many of […]
Further to our story yesterday about one M. Currie trained galloper setting a brutal speed in front that was perfect for it stablemate who came from behind and won, here is the official Stewards report as it relates to the matter.

Lenny Cain has rocked up with former trot driver turned lawyer Scott Neaves as his representative. Steve Shinn is representing the Stewards and Wayne Kelly is there as lawyer for the QRIC. The panel is Justice O’Brien, Juanita Maiden and Daryl Kays, who I must say is looking well. Cain is here to appeal a […]
Shinn is rambling and raving now. QRIC’s lawyer Kelly gives him a prod and tells him to shut up. Shinn shuts up. Panel member Maiden pipes up and asks for the race vision to be replayed so Cain can point out where exactly Kerr’s horse ran up onto him. The footage doesn’t help Cain a […]
Take a look at the Rockhampton jump out winner in the picture above. Do you reckon that’s a chestnut filly by the name of Rosedale Miss? Or could it have been it’s stablemate Greylist, a grey gelding that won the first race at Mackay last Thursday week after being backed from $26 into $6? Note […]
