Every club in the country, and people around New Zealand and Australia, contributed to setting up the museum and for the […]
Right in the middle of the time honoured Inter Dominion series the hapless clowns who run the Auckland Trotting Club – the men too afraid to publicly release their Annual Report, for fear of the world viewing the horrors that it contains – have announced their plans to demolish the harness racing Hall of Fame […]
Chill And Burn is an old injury plagued pacer that is, quite frankly, not much faster when going at full speed than a mule is at a slow canter. Yesterday at Albury the horse was having just its third start back after three years absence from the track. It had run a long last at […]
