Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
James McDonald What a world-class ride on the winner by J-Mac. An absolute pearler. This bloke is the best jockey in the nation bar none. Zac Purton Zac Purton isn’t. Hong Kong’s leading rider’s steer on Fangirl was an absolute shocker. Purton rode for luck and took the odds to nothing by running Waller’s star […]

Trainer/driver Michael Stanley absolutely and utterly slaughtered the odds on favourite Rock N Roll Doo in last night’s Geelong Cup. What the hell was he thinking and doing? Nothing and nothing it appeared. First he decides to ease the fast beginner Doo off the arm at the start from gate 3. WTF? This is a […]
The news that Racing and Wagering Western Australia are following Victoria’s lead by introducing one lap sprint races should shock no-one who is aware of the levels of incompetence inside that particular outfit. It appears that RWWA have fallen for the Victorian spin about sprint races being God’s gift to increasing wagering turnover, without actually […]
The Culprit! #Griff pic.twitter.com/Xql1gIAfOF — Ben melham (@BMelham) October 16, 2023 Was the man on the ladder to blame for Griff ducking out near the line in the Caulfield Guineas and costing Ben Melham a 10 meeting suspension? Melham – who posted the picture on Twitter – certainly seems to think so, and it makes […]
There were three Group 1 pacing races on the card at Melton last night Emma Stewart won them all. In fact she didn’t just win, she dominated. Stewart had 5 runners in the blue riband Vic Derby worth a total of $200 000. The stable picked up $162 ooo of it after her runners finished […]
We have received advice that out story overnight regarding The Locomotive was incorrect, and that the horse has not in fact thrown a positive swab. In reliance on this information, which is clearly different from that received yesterday, we have removed the story from the website and wish to state unequivocally that is was incorrect. […]
What a disgrace the weak-gutted Victorian Racing Club truly are. Fancy being so spooked by the small fringe group of loony anti-racing activists that they would deny racing fans and potential fans, not to mention all the prospective fans out there, the opportunity to go into the city and celebrate the Spring Carnival by cancelling […]
Ah what’s Keith been smoking or snorting? Not sure about Emma being too happy with her draws apart from HB Surely that’s a front line that the real not Kilmore Doo and LTF both go forward at the start, lead for which one has the most gates peed and gets there first and chair for […]
You wouldn’t have wanted to be a hungry punter at Mornington today. The kitchen closed just 90 minutes after the first. This was of course after early birds waited until half an hour before the first, meaning that there was hot food on for a grand total of 2 hours. It’s just not on. Most […]
