Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Why hasn’t Jason Grimson’s 12 month disqualification for assaulting another racing participant been published on the Harness Racing Australia website? Or on it’s website dedicated to the Eureka? After all, the Eureka is the biggest race ever in harness racing history, and Grimson has been widely publicised on the Eureka website authored by Adman Hamilton […]
I don’t know where Jason Bonnington has been for the past 2 months, but gee we are glad he is back because we were worried about the kid. Bonno is clearly okay though, back in full throttle with nothing changed. No-one knew what what the hell he was on about before he went for a […]
There was a horse in the 5th race at Menangle yesterday that was backed from $2.60 into $1.30. Thee Old Bomb was it’s name. It sort of was a an old bomb too. This horse was a former Kiwi who been battling away down in the Riverina prior to yesterday. He’d never won a race […]
See that? The moment that a person licensed under these rules, an official of the club conducting the meeting, an owner of a horse competing in the race, or such owner’s authorised agent becomes aware that a horse in ineligible to compete in a race, they must lodge an objection with the Stewards about the […]
It’s a bit of an issue this one isn’t it? One that places people who had nothing to do with Grimson’s violent, cowardly outburst in somewhat of an invidious position. I guess we all have choices to make in this life. All I hope is that everyone makes the right ones.
Accusations of a star harness racing trainer being a “drug cheat” sparked a wild Albion Park brawl, an inquiry has heard, which has led to four participants copping lengthy bans. Championship-winning trainer Jason Grimson has been disqualified for 12 months by stewards after pleading guilty to assaulting Brisbane Racing Club employee Adam Russo. At the […]
Dual Inter Dominion-winning trainer Jason Grimson has emerged the late secret weapon in forgotten star Captain Ravishing’s quest to the $2.1m TAB Eureka. Grimson, who burst onto the scene to become the pre-eminent open-class training force in Australasia, is helping trainer Ahmed Taiba fine-tune Captain Ravishing for the world’s richest harness race on Saturday week […]
We are not saying that there was anything amiss in race 3 at Menangle yesterday, and we are not saying that there wasn’t. What we are saying is that regardless of anything else, what happened here was a very bad look for racing indeed. Siren Sea was the $1.2o favourite. David Hewitt trained it, Brad […]
We wrote recently about how Peter ‘The Plodder’ Chadwick hadn’t posted a Stewards Report for a trot meeting he was in charge of a week after it had been run and won. Well here is another one. There was a metro meeting held two Saturday nights ago at Melton. It is our understanding that the […]
There are some funny rumours floating around about the propriety of the ownership of the John Singleton slot in the Eureka. I cannot vouch for this, other than to say that the two unconnected people who told me about it can. They say that there is a silent 2/3rd’s share holder in the slot. The […]
