Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
We have written many times before about why Michael Stanley should stick to training which he’s good at, and give up big race driving which he isn’t. https://peterprofit.com/?s=michael+stanley He proved the truth of our stories once more last night when he slaughtered his star pacer Rock N Roll Doo in the fast class race at […]
The Hondo Grattan has been run and won, and now the first 4 placegetters are through to a berth in the $250 000 Group 1 Chariots of Fire, the premier 4YO pace in the Dominion. It’s looking like perhaps the race of the year too. The field so far is: Frankie Ferocious Don’t Stop Dreaming […]
The decision of a bunch of ignorant bumblebees decided to schedule the $1.25 million harness slot race in the window as New Zealand’s far more prestigious $1 million slot race The Race By Grins has left the race that was supposed to revive WA harness racing bereft of quality runners, and as barren as the […]
28 horses crossed the Murray River from Victoria to race at Albury in NSW last night, instead of going down to Melton to have a crack. Who could blame them? They were all just chasing the cash. Prizemoney at the main Victorian track Melton last night was just $6800 per race on average. Every single […]
Colin DeFilippi is a vastly experienced reinsman who has competed at the top for a long time. You wouldn’t know it though from his drive on the favorite Donttelltheboys in the 5th race at Addington last night. He didn’t show a whole lot of vigor on the horse down the straight did he? Was he […]
There’s a story floating around the traps that trainer Seaton Grima was so highly aggrieved about both the deal offered to him by Summit Bloodstock and Aaron Bain to train their horses, and by their reluctance to up and have horses taken to the vets that he told them to stick it where the sun […]
Royce Gregory-Jack doesn’t drive a lot, but being by David Jack out of Mrs Jack he’s been around horses his whole life, and he has won 3 J.C. Caffyn Indigenous Driver’s Plates at Menangle during his career, so he must be at the very least a competent reinsman who knows what he’s doing in the […]
In the space of just 5 weeks and 37 runners Mildura trainer Naomi Kerr has won almost a third of the prizemoney that she did in 268 starts over the entire course of the last year, and is training winners at almost double the strike rate that she did in 2o23 too. It’s funny that […]
A lot of Tasmanian harness racing watchers are asking how the Steward Gavin Griffin could possibly have sat on the panel that handed trainer Michael Laugher an effective $2000 fine for a substance rule breach – a positive swab – that would usually have seen the offender put out for months. These people’s concern is […]
It’s hard to disagree with this pundit’s summation of race 8 at Young during the week after you watch the race. It’s even harder to dispute it once you know that the both the winner and it’s stablemate drawn the 1 who started at $1.50 are owned by Aaron Bain and Summit Bloodstock. If this […]
