Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Over in the South Island of New Zealand there lives a pacer named Pocket Call. He is a slow pacer, a very slow one indeed, perhaps even the slowest in the world. Pocket Call has had sixty starts over the past 3 years. He hasn’t won or run a place in any of them, although […]
Bien Hoa is a pacer who was born all the way back in 2007, the year that Kevin Rudd became the Prime Minister the first time around. He made his debut at Bankstown in 2011, the year Dunaden won the Cup. He won that race and two more in a row. In his first 25 […]
No horse had ever broken 1.50.0 at Albion Park until last night. Blacksadance did, breaking his own track record by eight-tenths of a second to do it. He ran 1.49.2. By my reckoning it’s 3rd fastest time ever run on an Australian track outside of Menangle. Lochinvart Art went 1.48.6 at Melton, Ride High ran […]
Surely that couldn’t have been the two NZ trotting identities who are charged with sexual assault of a young female industry participant that were seen together drunk in a bar in the South Island over the weekend, could it? Don’t their bail conditions contain no contact conditions, and restrictions about intoxication? I guess the pair […]
What the hell happened in the Caduceus Classic at Melton last night? Nathan Jack drove Copy That like an absolute lunatic, and got it beaten. He got Mark Pitt and Honolua Bay done over too. Kate Gath did it to herself. This was one weird race. Here is how it rolled. N. Jack comes out […]
ALBION PARK Race 3 no 7 – Ronaldo Is a much better pacer than his recent form looks. Was going to win mid-week for all money until he was interfered with in a fall. The draw is not ideal but he comes into 5 with the scratchings so it’s not as bad as it looks. […]
The strong whisper from across the ditch is that a very high profile harness racing identity named That has nodded their head to plead guilty to that. That – the thing not the person – being a charge of possessing or supplying the drug MDMA, aka Ecstasy or Eccy. The scumbag Matt Anderson was disqualified […]
Cameron Ross (right), with Jumping Jack Callaghan There are reports out of WA that a bloke looking very like Grant Dixon’s former stablehand turned Group 1 winning Menangle trainer Cameron Ross has been sighted disembarking from the red eye flight from Sydney to Perth about once every 4-6 weeks, and spending five days or so […]
Captain Ravishing has just run the fastest last quarter that veteran Victorian race called Dan Milecki has ever seen. 25.1 seconds he ran. His final half mile was run in 52.8 seconds. It is the fastest quarter he has run by more than 2 seconds. The fastest half and quarters that Lochinvar Art ever ran […]
The mail is that Daz tripped over drunk on the cross step and kick, and fell off the stage. He blamed the cats piss Yankee beer. The last time I spoke to Darrell Graham he was in Vegas, about to go into the auditorium for the Shania Twain show. Brittney, Steph and Linda were there […]
