Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
You don’t like to gloat, but we’ve been telling you that Merlin was the best 2-year-old in New Zealand since the time he could walk. We were right too. Last night in the Young Guns classic at Alexandra Park he took them to town. You got better than evens too, which was like Santa coming […]
In the day we sweat it out on the streets Of a runaway American dream At night we ride through the mansions of glory In suicide machines Sprung from cages on Highway 9 Chrome wheeled, fuel injected, and steppin’ out over the line Oh, baby this town rips the bones from your back It’s a […]
The All-clear for the race was delayed to permit Stewards to review the Judge’s initial placings as it was their observation that KABAYO KING and ARCTIC PEGASUS had carried the incorrect numbers and had started from incorrect positions, although on the correct handicap mark. Having reviewed the official vision the Stewards satisfied that the identity […]
The CEO of Harness Racing NSW Mr John Dumesny (pictured above) has been in touch early this morning to advise that the control body certainly does not condone or support the types of sexualised post that we highlighted overnight as appearing on the Wagga Harness Club’s Facebook page. Mr Dumesny says that he suspects that […]
What you are seeing in the picture at the top is the start of the $100 000 Tasmania Cup run at Hobart on Saturday night. You would never know it looking at this, but there were actually 9 horses drawn on the front line mark from the stand. Why then is that horse in the […]
I doubt that we are going to very popular in South Australia at the moment, for since we published our story yesterday about the horses that ran under the wrong numbers at Globe Derby without the Stewards noticing, they have now noticed. The official Stewards comments on the race have been changed. Suddenly the trainers […]
Speaking of Alex ‘The Juice’ Ashwood, there he was in Tasmania on the weekend too, smack bang in the middle on another episode of the popular reality TV program ‘Circus Days – the Crisis in Australian Stewarding’. The Juice is the part-owner of a pacer named Tactile Sensation, one of many horses that he owns […]
This is what I found on the Wagga Harness Club’s Facebook page today when I went to have a look at it researching an intended story about the inaugural Dachshund Dash family event that the club is running on Saturday night to raise funds for a worthy local animal rescue charity. What on earth is […]
If, after all that we have told you, you still need any further proof that South Australian harness racing is ruined, and rotten to the core, then just look at the 2nd race at the metro meeting at Port Pirie last Saturday night. It was the hottest race in history, and the Stewards who officiated […]
See number 5 there? It’s not the horse that it supposed to be. The word is that South Australian police officers were at Globe Derby Park yesterday checking on the systems and checks and balance in regard to their ongoing investigation into the Shane Loone runners ring-in a couple of months ago. While the police […]
