Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Racing Victoria (RV) Stewards have today continued their inquiry into the reason for Headingley, ridden by Dean Holland, falling during Race 1 at Donald and District Racing Club on Monday, 24 April 2023. Headingley fell near the 300m mark in the 3YO Maiden Plate (1000m) and Time To Rumble (Alana Kelly), which was racing behind […]
Ashley Manton has been around a while and is no angel, and hasn’t been for a long time. Here he at Charlton back in 2014 beating the crap out of a horse. Manton is the driver of the leader on the inside. Look how hard he hits it. A few years later in 2017 Manton […]
Dear Peter Profit Re the Wiremu Pinn saga, and your story about it. It’s nice to see another perspective provided on in this situation. I did read the news about this situation this morning and didn’t think too much of it…. Now this morning Peter profit gives us another outlook on it. I backed Savvy […]

This is race that is the immediate focus of attention of the Stewards investigating racing corruption. The horse that blew from $3.70 to $6.oo is Blistering, in the orange and white stripes, ridden by Lewis German. He is a crook, a thief, a cheat and a bum. The investigation is ongoing, but one thing is […]
Two weeks ago I wrote what you read above, with a confidence born of certainty. I know the Racing NSW CEO you see, and understand how he thinks, which is the same way I do. Neither of us learned it in Toorak, or at boarding school at posh grammars. Shared knowledge like this gives a […]
