Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/nsw/NRC27022608.mp4 It’s an amazing sport harness racing. In what other discipline except for perhaps lawn bowls does an athlete hit their peak when they are in their mid-40’s? Most in all codes are well and truly retired by then. Not at the trots. Bulletproof Boy is somewhere around 45 years of age in human terms. […]
Take a look at number 10 that begins from the unruly position (outside of the back line) from this supposed standing start. No horse begins that fast from a stand. If it didn’t get an unfair flyer then my arse doesn’t point to the ground. The starter said it was okay, and the Stewards didn’t […]
Look who is back in the cart after 15 years in the wilderness. For multiple NSW premiership winning driver Greg Bennett. As you will recall, the dream team of HNT lawyers and Jim Murdoch KC won Bennett the right to QLD license last month after demonstrating before the QLD Civil and Administrative Tribunal that he […]
Trot Adam Ruggari has been outed for 3 years and 3 months after committing his 4th substance rule breach for one of his horses throwing a positive TCO2 swab. The bloke is clearly a slow learner isn’t he? What smart man milkshakes a horse with absolute confidence unless they are paying the Steward in charge […]
I think trot trainer Jarred Hetherington’s appeal hearing comes up next week in the NSW Racing Appeals Tribunal. Well not his appeal, theirs. Harness Racing NSW’s. Why on God’s earth, at a time that prizemoney is being slashed all over the place, would HRNSW spend large amounts of good industry people’s money paying its lawyers […]
Have a bloody look at this drive by young Cooper Griffiths on Three Rivers in the last at Tamworh will you. What an absolute disgrace. Three Rivers and the winner of the race Arnie’s Army are stablemates, both trained by Tom Ison. Ison elected to drive Arnie, and put the kid on Rivers. Rivers blew […]
Coffey and his dad, popular Swan Hill thoroughbred trainer Austy, have taken the reins for one of the slots in the inaugural Running of the Bulls, in the Mallee town of Birchip – and organising a massive family reunion at the historic event on Sunday week, March 8. The Coffey family is among the 10 […]
There is a lot of conjecture at the moment about what might might happen when Queensland’s greatest trotter ever Gus and Victoria’s best of the 21st century Keayang Zahara will finally meet. Which if it won’t be in the Hammerhead at Menangle will almost certainly be in The Trot at Cambridge. I can tell you […]
We are going to publish some stories critical of Nathan Dawson in the come coming days, but first we thought we would show you why. Dawson is an absolutely gun driver when he tries. Tuesday’s steer on Frankie Ferocious confirms it. This was the perfect drive. No bum could have done it. Hold that thought. […]
Tapentadol is a heavy duty painkiller, a synthetic form of heroin, which in itself is a synthetic type of morphine. Bob and Vinnie Knight’s success was born on morphine. Feel no pain, run pain free. Paul Tonkin had an excuse for horse throwing a positive swab to trace elements of the stuff. He had been […]
