Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Have I gone mad, even more so than I have ever been? Harness racing ‘expert’ Adam Hamilton reckons that the Inter Dominion – run in November December – is programmed too early in the harness racing season. Hall of Fame trainer Anthony Butt agrees. This is what he said: In the past, owners and trainers […]
These hush-hushers who run the Albion Park Harness Racing Club have got to be kidding haven’t they? Two-tenths of fuck-all members of the public go to the trots anymore, and I know that for a fact because 1/10th of the attendees are three of my mates. In Queensland harness racing is losing $5 million a […]
Tim Butt’s trotter Kar Manor is the new Doug, the money sucking beast that breaks at almost every start. His galloping record in QLD is 7/10 so far, five of them when well in the market. He is the sort of horse that should be stood down from racing until he trials acceptably twice, and […]
I don’t know what to say about the standard of South Australian stewarding, or at least nothing that I haven’t said a million times before. Look at the decisions in these three races in a row at Globe Derby this week, and you make up your own mind. Stewards inquired into an incident near the […]
Sometimes you just look at something and have to shake your head. This Stewards report is two of them. How was Jilliby Kung Fu disadvantaged by track conditions? The winner of the big one – the QLD Sun, the very next race – came from exactly the same position up the sprint lane, as did […]
There are many mysteries in life that I don’t understand. Where we came from. Why people believe in religion. Whether humans really ever landed on the moon. If we did, why 50 years later we still haven’t gone back. What the hell the Movie Eyes Wide Shut was all about. Why Kim Kardashian got butt […]
We asked an astute reader from WA for their opinion on the proposed sale of parcels of land at Gloucester Park, the home of harness racing in the state. This is their view. It makes a lot of sense to me. There is no choice for a future for WA harness racing in my opinion, […]
Lincoln Farms spin doctor in residence Dr Barry Lichter was handing the tip out all over town and beyond for Tommy Lincoln in the first at Albion Park on Saturday night, and why wouldn’t he for he was talking here about a natural leader drawn the 1, a horse with victories in the past 18 […]
Well sportsfans, we came up empty handed in the v Bonno challenge this week. We couldn’t find a winner on that dumb-arse Shepparton track to save our lives. Bonno couldn’t either, but as we spotted him $200 start he wins. Congratulations Sir, but don’t spend all your winnings at once, because there aren’t any, and […]
Miley Cyrus’s ex. Hemsworth. Albion Park r 8 no 8. Sits, sprints, wins. He’s double figure odds. Get on. Miley did.
