Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Luke Nolen has nothing to complain about the 24 meeting suspension that he received for this piece of particular piece of madness at Pakenham on Thursday. He got off light. Imagine if his bad-tempered stupidity had caused a fall. He would have been sent out for a long spell then.
I told Keith From Queensland that the draw wouldn’t matter in the Hunter Cup, and I wrote about it yesterday too. Keith said I was am idiot. He was right of course. The draw has thrown the great race wide open. Republican Party in 1. Swayzee in 2. Leap To Fame out wide in 6. […]
Carter Dalgety copped a two week suspension for almost knocking Mark Pitt and Oliver Dan over and out on the first turn in the Kilmore Cup. He deserved it too. The HRV Stewards have however been kind enough to delay the start date of the penalty by 8 days to allow Dalgety to drive in […]
Dr Whiting has been hard at work doing the tips for us at Caulfield today. You could charge admission just to watch her pick winners. As always, good luck and have a winning day.
You know you’ve a programming problem when you can’t attract enough horses to make up a field for a $60 000 race. That is exactly what has happened to Harness Racing Victoria having to call off the Group 1 Sumthingaboutmaori for female trotters the this weekend and reschedule it to Anzac Day. HRV have fallen […]

The Cranbourne Cup clash between Leap To Fame, Kingman and Swayzee in the Cranbourne Cup on Saturday night is going to be an absolute ripper. Keayang Zahara’s procession in the trot will be something special too. But there is a third race on the card that promises to be just as good, the Group 3 […]
After last week Mack the knife taking to my pieces on Keayang and the quality of the potential Hunter Cup field I’ll say a couple of things before I indulge myself regarding this weeks Cranbourne Cup. Keayang won’t take on the pacers to meet Mack’s requirements to take Maoris Idol mantle. They don’t need to. […]
Nathan ‘Cracker’ Jack is a genius of a driver. But no-one ever accused him of being honest. On Saturday night at Melton he proved both. Keith from QLD had the quaddie going 1300 times one out coming into the last leg, which wasn’t hard because the first 3 winners were the odds on faves Jilliby […]
Saturday night’s Shepparton Cup is not the clash of the Titans that it was talked up to be, but gee it’s going to be a good race. Leap to Fame v Kingman. Forget the rest. Kingman is drawn 1, Larry is two outside him in 3. The nation’s pre-eminent trot writer Adman Hamilton wrote during […]
