Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
There were two massive plunges at the trots late this afternoon. Both of them went wrong. The first was in the 1st race at Penrith when the Rex Horne owned Silent Reaction was backed from $26 into $5.50. Those punters who launched the plonk obviously thought the horse would go straight to the lead off […]
Australia’s Top 10 trainers for 2023. Look at who the top 2 are. A picture tells 1000 words. This picture screams 10 000.
Ben Yole trained 45 of the 67 starters on the card at the Burnie trots in Tasmania last night. His father Wayne trained another 4 of them, making it 48 out of 67. If you take out race 5, in which Yole had only 2 runners it makes it , it makes it 43 out […]
Last night at Dubbo the 3-year-old pacer Our Sailor provided a very special Boxing Day present to it’s connections and to those who backed it from double figure odds into $5.50 – presumably one and the same – when it won the 4th race on the card from the breeze. It was a very clever […]
American Me was a talented but rather limited pacer for the first 4 years that it raced. During that time it was trained by Doug Gale and then Gavin Smith. It won 9 restricted races from 61 starts, and earned about $100 grand in prizemoney, less than it cost to train and feed it. Then […]
Races 1 and 2 at the Toowoomba gallops last Saturday week were a nondescript BM65 and a Class 3. Both events attracted QLD TAB win betting pools of well in excess of $10 000. The Inter Dominion Grand Final is a time honoured championship that it the culmination of the greatest series on the harness […]
How often is it that you see Emma Stewart take four horses to the track to run in four races and come away with no wins and just two thirds? Not very often is the answer. She should have won one – and would have if Mark Pitt hadn’t made the wrong decision to pull […]
You scumbag, you maggotYou cheap lousy faggotHappy Christmas your arseI pray God it’s our last – the Pogues, Fairytale in New York Franco Landry hadn’t been going too good in 2023. In fact in 22 starts this year the best it could manage was a solitary 2nd and three 3rds. So when money started raining […]
“Some circumstantial evidence is very strong, as when you find a trout in the milk” – Henry David Thoreau This is the full decision of the Victorian Racing Appeals Tribunal in the matter of the Emma Stewart stay. As we told you, the HRV integrity team have stuffed up. Emma might somehow get away with […]
If you ever want to see a set up race watch race 4 at Gloucester Park on Friday night. The two pronounced favourites are the 4 My Ultimate Chevron and the 5 Hoppys Way. Both are easy in the market. The horse drawn 12 Alcopony (pronounced Al Capone Eee) is heavily backed from $15 into […]
