Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Deni did the double. Minstrel won the Cup. What a mighty horse he is, as tough as teak like Pure Steel. And what a wonderful achievement by Deni Roberts to become the first woman ever to drive two WA Pacing Cup winners. It was a night for celebration all round. https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/wa/GPM12122504.mp4
Hi Archie, Chester and I were only saying the other day, over a Lamington and a Cuppa in the members at Pinjarra Trots, how long is it since we have seen a good old fashioned plunge, drug assisted or clean as a whistle, you know, all hands on deck, helping a battler get the cash? […]
It is morally reprehensible and completely unacceptable for greyhounds to be euthanised unnecessarily. Such an act destroys all public confidence in the greyhound racing industry. It is common knowledge that participants in the past have been caught deliberately euthanising their greyhounds once the dogs finished their active racing career. This practice must be stopped, or […]
The race for the WA State Trainers title looks like going right down to the wire, with Michael Young and Aiden De Campo – neither of whom has a won a premiership before – clearing right out from the rest of the field on 103 wins (Young) v 101 wins (De Campo), with last year’s […]
As we told you a couple of weeks ago there is a huge push by the thoroughbred industry at present in Western Australia for increased funding.

Dear lan, The new racing season has begun, but not without its challenges. As a collective group of Western Australia’s leading thoroughbred trainers, we are increasingly frustrated by the current state of the industry and, more importantly, deeply concerned about its future direction. While there are many issues at play, our greatest disappointment lies in […]
The career of one time Breeders Crown winner and beaten favorite in a Chariots of Fire at $1.15 Captain Ravishing roared back to life at Gloucester Park on Friday night when he knocked off WA’s best pacer Mister Smartee in a Free For All at Gloucester Park. Captain Ravishing, having his second start for new […]
Murders aren’t confined to the dance floor. They happen on race tracks too. Lucy Fiore proved that today in the first race at Kalgoorlie. It was a four horse race. Fiore was on the 10/9 ($2.10) favorite Twist Of Gold. She rode it like it was the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, popping it into the spot […]
These are the two horses involved in the “ring-in” at Northam during the week. Other than both being horses they don’t look a lot alike. Once is much heavier across the front quarters and has a white sock on the off hind leg. The other is much lighter, different colored and doesn’t have any white […]
Here is the question. Was G. Hall Jr driving to win on Mighty Ronaldo in the Easter Cup at Gloucester Park on Friday night, or was he driving to get the favorite Magnificent Storm beaten? It sure looked like the latter to us. Hall Jr parked Mighty Ronaldo in the death early, which is not […]
