Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The multi hundred thousand dollar live country racing broadcast vision contract handed on a platter to On The Bit Racing by Racing Queensland continues to return huge results for the people of both the city and the bush, as you can see by the outstanding vision at the top provided from yesterday’s Mt Isa meeting.

You would go a long way to see a better example of brilliant aggressive driving than Jack Trainor’s demolition job on Stylish Memphis in the Group 1 mares race at Menangle tonight, and even then you might not find it. It was sheer genius. Guts, balls and glory. Turbo shot the gate, and then took […]
