Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
There a couple of trot licensee brothers in north-western NSW who should be starting to get a bit nervous after the arrests of the two rapists in New Zealand I reckon. After all, gang banging intellectually disabled young women is not quite the done thing is it? Spitting on them and beating them up isn’t […]
Tasmanian trainer Nathan Ford has been suspended or disqualified more times than most people have had hot dinners. Brawls, urine swaps, pull ups, crash and bangs, you name it, he’s done it, and served the time for it too. It’s fair to say he’s not the most straight up and down licensee that you will […]
There is a lot of talk across the ditch about tonight’s Group 1 $100 000 Anzac Cup at Alexandra Park, and the main topic of conversation is about how the treasurer of Harness Racing NZ threw one of his horses into the race so that they could enough starters to run the race, which his […]
Simple pictures are the easiest to understand, so let me paint one for you. In 2011 the Auckland Trotting Club’s financial position was: PROFIT – $1.5 million ASSETS – $44.2 million DEBT – Nil Ten years late in 2021 it (supposedly) looks like this: LOSS – $28.2 million ASSETS – $381.4 million (if you believe […]
https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/vic/MXM14052203.mp4 Just have a look at this will you. Start the video from the 600 mark. It’s the horse on the leader’s back (Kerryn Manning), and the one behind her (Emmett Brosnan) that you need to watch. Look at what Brosnan’s horse is doing to her. What the hell? Why didn’t he grab the reins […]
Our old mate Chainsaw has 62 of the 96 runners in races 2-10 at Launceston last night, which adds up to about two-thirds of them. Based on those numbers he should have won six races. You’d have to be able to train well to that though, and the Saw can’t. So he won just three. […]
I have watched this replay of the finish of race 6 at the Ashburton trots yesterday 10 ten times, and I still can’t see a margin for the winner. Do I need new glasses? I dunno. One thing that I would like to know is why Korban Newman, one of the stable drivers for the […]
As you can see in the republished stories below (which are merely a selection of them, there are more), we have written several times about the QLD trotter Doug, who gallops away at almost every start he has, and steals innocent punters money. Look at the picture at the top, which is Doug’s recent form, […]
Is it April Fools Day or something? What the hell are the QRIC Stewards talking about? Doug has a good record in regard to galloping free of interference does he? Bollocks. What’s this? That was seven starts back. How about this one two starts ago? This is what Doug did on Saturday night. Note that […]
The talented but highly temperamental trotter Doug was placed on another warning by the Stewards after again galloping away from the stand at Albion Park on Saturday night, but you really have to start wondering how long a piece of string is and asking the question when does enough become enough? This is the seventh […]
