Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Which member of a well known harness racing family is said to have thrown a personal positive swab to a Class A drug that once one all the vogue in the 1970’s and 80’s? Has yet another leading trainer had a horse throw a positive swab? Is there any truth to the rumour that Killer […]
The entire harness racing Stewards panel in South Australia should be sacked and replaced tomorrow. These so-called integrity officials lack the competence, confidence and courage to perform their jobs to the requisite standard required to maintain public confidence in the sport, and their ongoing control of the regulatory functions continue to drag it into the […]
Regular readers of this site will be most familiar with Hollywood Rooki, the one time legless walker that the World’s Greatest Trainer (South of the Tweed division) Jason Grimson transformed into a two time 1.54.6 winner at Goulburn who has won 9 from 15 since joining his barn last year, and put together a winning […]
Mildura It was Cup night, but the highlight of the evening was undoubtedly Bernie Winkle’s amazing win from 4 back the fence in the FFA support event. Bernie loves Mildura, and Mildura loves him. I think we all do. Aaron Dunn drove the race of his life behind Silent Major in the Cup, and deserved […]
https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/nsw/PEC08042103.mp4 There is no man in the world training better than Jumping Jason Grimson at the moment. Or getting better results anyway. Jumping says its his genius, cynics say its the gear, the rainforest lawyers say don’t offer any more opinions on the matter, so I won’t. We will just stick to the facts. Kerry […]
Ben Yole (pictured) had 30 of the 91 starters that turned out to run in the nine races at last night’s Launceston harness race meeting. Yole finished the evening with a grand total of 1 winner, 3 seconds, and a third. And this is the bloke they say is Tassie’s premier trainer. David Hayes had […]
Ben Yole, the so-called premier trot trainer in Tasmania, presented 40 of the 61 runners at the Devonport meeting last night. He didn’t win a single race. Yole is a great trainer isn’t he? This is how he went. Race 7 Nine of the ten starters. He missed. Race 6 Eight out the ten. Missed. […]
Well didn’t Jack ‘Turbo’ Trainor have a day and a half out at Menangle today? First up he cuts across on a diagonal line out of the start in the 3rd race and flattens Sean Grayling and his horse cold, and gets away with because he puts on a good show of trying to pull […]
Last night at Hobart trainer Ben Yole turned out 33 starters in just 4 races. He had 9 of 11 in the first race, 8 of 11 in the second, 6 of 12 in the third, and 10 of 12 in the fourth. Despite this huge numerical advantage, Yole won just two races, which only […]
I would like to make a bet with you. The bet is that the pacer Watchmylips, which got beaten almost 100 metres last Saturday at Melton but mysteriously didn’t get stood down, won’t be going to Tasmania for a spell at all. My bet is that the pacer with a clear problem will be going […]
