Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Licensees are up in arms, trot fans are perplexed, and punters will be shifting their investments north to Leeton tonight after the world class debacle at Shepparton.

Jimmy Cagney may not be dancing for too much longer It was a like a tomato sauce convention at the Launceston trots last night, with favorites starting deep in the red in 7 of the 10 races on the card. Five of them won at prices of $1.09, $1.05, $1.30, $1.25, and $1.05. The two […]

Grant Dixon is faced with the devil’s dilemna aboard Leap To Fame from the 1 gate in the Wondais Mate at Albion Park tonight. Does he do what he never does and fire the champ out hard off the arm to try to get the lead? Or does he let the natural speedster Turnitup cross […]
Gary Hall Jr has been handed down a 5 week suspension for unnacceptable driving on Wildwest in the race you see above and below, with two weeks of the five absorbed into a separate suspension for the same offence that he has already on the out for, meaning that for this particular piece of cheating […]
