Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
As the brilliant Brad Reid reveals on Harnesslink this morning, the schemers on the HRNZ board late last year quietly slipped a changed into the rule 1303(i) that I wrote about last night to change the meaning from that which I detailed in my story to this which Reid has detailed in his. There can […]
For those of us who don’t know a great deal about horse doping – which is most normal, good people – the revelations in the FBI drug prosecutions and trials are extremely instructive. In fact when you read them and think about a lot of things that happen here in the Southern Hemisphere – things […]
I appreciate that Racing QLD’s media man is only a young bloke, and that he is probably quite new to racing and learning on his feet. But when you are going to make bold assertions about who has and hasn’t held both gallops and trots training licenses you should know your facts, especially if you […]
Neither I or anyone else at this site knows any Graeme or Graham White, other than a chap I went to school with four decades ago when I was 11 years old. We did not receive the copy of the letter from that person, or the Graeme White who Mr Gangle purports to identify as […]
Do you remember the stories we wrote about how the Canadian blow in Greg Gangle, who thanks to the influence of HRNSW CEO John Dumesny was appointed last year to the CEO job at the Wagga Trots (something to rally write home to Mom about), decided to target a poor little trot loving lady named […]
Flashy Seb is the $1.60 favourite in race 1 at Menangle. If it steps clean and trots throughout it probably wins. Probably, but nowhere near certainly. But if gallops at the start it’s gone. I reckon it is likely to, and the odds are evens at worst, and more likely 6-4 that it will happen. […]

As I said in the story when I gave out the tips, it was a good day for golf. 3 tips plus a saver. All lost. 4 units invested. 4 units lost. Return zero. ROI nil. From here on in we are only giving Group or Feature race tips on the gallops. Our record there […]
Bugger, I forgot to give you today’s Addington trot tips for the last day of the carnival. Eight bets. Four wins. $1.50, $6.50, $7.50, $12.00. Beach Ball at $7.50 declared a good thing, with witnesses and documentary evidence to prove it. @27.50 collect per 8 unit outlay. You can do the maths. 3.5 times your […]
The word out of Woodend Beach this morning is that a private meeting was held early today between Robert Dunn, John ‘Lurch’ Dunn, and senior stable employees Craig Edmond and Gary Lane. They say that the topic was covert surveillance being conducted outside the property by investigators from the Racing Integrity Board, NZ’s version of […]
