Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
To save QRIC the trouble because we know they are busy, we are pleased to announce the following appointments to senior Deputy Steward roles. Deputy Chief Steward South QLD – Geoffrey ‘Gus’ Goold Deputy Chief Steward North QLD – Karen Lees Geoffrey joined the Brisbane stewards’ panel after starting as a mature age jockey apprentice […]
The story that follows talks you through how Narissa and Taleah McMullen, and Narissa’s husband Matt Elkins fixed a race so that Elkins brother and dad’s horse would win. The McMullen’s cousin Nathan Dawson is arguably involved in it too, as I am guessing was Justin Elkins, although because it all happened for him he […]
The Stewards report above is absolute bullshit. Awholelotofpretty was not hanging out an any stage of the race at all. It’s driver Matt Elkins pulled it out of the sprint lane sit and three wide on the turn to give the horse behind the run through. This race a boatie, one so obvious that you […]
This is taken from this year’s QRIC annual report. The dud, totally oppositional outfit who think as a general rule that greyhound people like my mates and I are all grubs is reporting on their wonderful achievements in the financial year 2021/22. Aren’t they just brilliant? $30 million brilliant. Operational focus – achievements and challenges […]
See that? It’s an extract from the Queensland Liquor Act published on the State Government website business.qld.gov.au. Now look this. It’s a story on Racenet, accompanied by a quote from the Chairman of the Gold Coast Turf Club Brett Cook. Gold Coast Turf Club chairman Brett Cook confirmed anyone who shows up with a general […]
See the horse that I have circled? Do you see it wearing any blinkers? If you do, take your own off. There aren’t any. He is not wearing blinkers at all. Which creates a bit of a problem. Why? Because the official racing Queensland form guide and results says that he is. So does RISA, […]
What you see in the picture comes from the widely read primary producers bible, the Farmers Online website. Every farmer in the nation checks their weather forecasts here, for their livings depend on knowing when the rain is coming, and none of them trust the BOM. https://www.farmonlineweather.com.au/long-range-forecast/28-day-rain/qld/southeast-coast We are being told a great lie right […]
This is the official release from Racing QLD. I am confused. Is this reality or spin? The Magic Millions meeting was postponed due to wet weather and poor visibility following 14mm of unforeseen rain since 3.00am. Race meetings don’t get cancelled because of a tiny 1.4cm of rain falling on a good track over the […]
As you can clearly see from the information published by the racing bible RISA, the Gold Coast track manager Nevesh Ramdhani made the very ill advised decision to dump 44mm of irrigation – water – on the track in the 7 days leading in to todays aborted meeting. That’s 2 inches of water, applied to […]
Gold Coast track curator Nevesh Ramdhani suspects a rogue sprinkler was partly behind Saturday’s debacle, which saw the Magic Millions meeting called off after just two races. Ramdhani, who says he is not 100 per cent sure what caused a wet spot on the turn to appear on Saturday morning, says he was let down […]
