Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The dominance of the giant stables in Sydney is getting totally out of control. Or should I say the Waller stablers dominance of the numbers in Sydney is. Take the third race at Warwick Farm today, the Maiden Plate over 1400m. There are 9 runners in the race. Chris Waller trains 7 of them. Waller’s […]
I want to have a closer look at this CHEERSTOLOU horse, because what it has done since it joined the Donny Smith stable is absolutely insane. Im Themightyquinn’s track record at Albion Park of 1.50.4 set in 2014 stood for eight years. Cruz tied it when Craig Cross was the straw man boss at McCarthy’s […]
We just received this message from a trusted source. Oh dear. It seems that the most affable trainer in New South Wales might be in a bit of bother with the Stewards in the days to come. As my mate the Eagle’s old man the bookie always use to say, punting and the piss don’t […]
Stewards at Thangool yesterday found a syringe containing a substance in trainer Jason Hancock’s vehicle that he had used to transport his horse Zufasta to the track. Hancock told the stipes it was a crushed up acepromazine tablet. ACE is a sedative. You cannot give them on race day, and you can’t be in possession […]

The horrific injuries that licensed QLD racehorse trainer Darleen Duryea suffered in the trackwork fall we showed you earlier this week have confined her to a wheelchair, hopefully not forever, but at least for now. After four years of hard work and intensive therapy, during which she maintained her training license but was unable to […]
“I can’t touch horses or saddle horses but I can manage some things for the stable, help with programming campaigns for horses and manage communication with owners” “There are some things I did wrong in the past and if I could go back in time and change some stuff I would. “I’ve always wanted to […]
Today is the 12 month anniversary of QLD racing legend Pat Duff’s passing. It’s hard to believe a year had passed since Pat’s been gone. Gone from us, bet never forgotten. Spare a moment for reflection on your fondest memories of Pat. May the road rise to meet you, May the wind be always at […]
The Chris and Corey Munce stable is absolutely on fire at present. They have led in a winner on 8 of the past 9 occasions they’ve raced at a meeting. Their tally includes two doubles, two trebles, and four winners yesterday at the Sunshine Coast. Not even Gollan is in better form. And of course […]
The mail is that the substance that Clinton Austin’s horse threw positive to at Birdsville was the by-product of application of a sold over the counter topical antiseptic spray rather than a deliberately administered performance enhancer. Topical antiseptic spray is basically something like Betadine, the red stuff you put on cuts or sores, or Difflam […]
