Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The article below by an author named JayJay appeared on Perth Turf Talk. It is reproduced for the interest of WA readers. https://racingwa.com.au/news/2025/08/07/cwhrc-boosts-prizemoney-this-season A disingenuous piece of spin that is significant for what it doesn’t say complete without the authors byline attached to it, unlike every other “News article” on the website? What it doesn’t […]
An import having its first WA start for trainer Michael Young started $2.00 favorite in race 2 at Gloucester Park last night. Why that’s remarkable is that the horse – name Our Thunder – was a rating 30 walker with form of 79 starts for just 2 wins – the most recent of them 63 […]

Remember the short clip we showed you the other day of WA reinsman Ryan Bell reverse head butting the horse behind him, and startling or hurting it so much that it galloped? Here it is if again if you need a reminder. Bell is on the horse in front on the inside in the red […]

Pearl popped her head out from under the brolly down at Pinjarra today during race 9. What she saw through the driving rain was interesting. It had already been a bad day with the pension cheque disappearing courtesy of a very confident drive on the justifiably odds on favourite in the Trotters Cup when Betty […]
Questions are being asked by everybody about the driving tactics of reinswomen Maddison Brown on Relatively Arma in the Westbred 4&5YO Mares race at Gloucester Park on Friday night. Everybody except of course the Koala loving Stewards. The issue relates to Brown’s refusal to hand up the lead on the $10.00 shot Relatively Arma early […]
