Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Lloyd does it again. Incredible. Aiden O’Brien almost pulled the handicapping theft of the century, but his son Joe pulled his pants down. Great run Tiger Moth regardless. Brilliant ride the winner. This kid McNeil is a gun. What the hell was James McDonald thinking on Finche. He shouldn’t be riding anyway after the foul […]
I guess we have to. What other excuse can there be for these trainers like Renee Schluenz, Ronald Finch, Joao Campeao and Ricky Gudge to keep putting Sheargold on their horses? Would you put a 33-year-old married man with kids on yours if he had sent your just turned 16-year-old daughter explicit sexual texts putting […]
Have you ever seen a Melbourne Cup winner thrown by a pure sprinter? Yeah of course you have, Vow and Declare last year. So the fact that Anthony Van Dyke is out of the Australian sprinter Believe’n’Succeed, herself a daughter of the crack speedster Exceed and Excel, is not the reason that he can’t win […]
I am researching a story about a bum trainer from Gawler named Aaron Bain, who has come from nowhere to become one of the biggest players in four state Australian harness racing, and has a whole lot of links to horses that suddenly grow legs, and to trainers with massive question marks over them like […]
Here is my humble opinion on this debate. Natalie Rasmussen was taking care of business in coming out and forcing Copy That wider, and David Butcher made a huge error in going back to the rails to follow the leader. Even Natalie Rasmussen took three looks at him to say how wonderful that is! Maybe […]
Regular reader Nev Black sent the missive below in reply to a comment I made about Copy That being a tragedy beaten in the Great Northern Derbyt earlier in the year. I thank Nev greatly for taking the time to write in with his views – feel free to do so too at any time […]
This story about polls that shock is the greatest crock you will ever read in your life, and Steven Wardill the so-said political expert who wrote it should hang his head on shame. The South Brisbane election story is simple. Last time around the LNP put the Greens last on their how to vote cards, […]
Leopards don’t change their spots, and neither do crooked vets and cheating trot trainers. Dr Ron Lloyd is a crooked vet, wretched to the core. He is disqualified from harness racing until November 2026 after returning three positive swabs in five years as a trainer. Lloyd served a year for clenbuterol – an airway opener; […]
Pearls For Tash was what we used to call in less politically correct days a poofter. It was a terrible turn of phrase when you think about it, and totally incorrect, as Ian Roberts proved. Plus she’s a mare. So in the spirit of the day, and with all due respect, I will just say […]
EPO is Erythropoietin, a hormone produced by the kidney and liver that sparks the multiplication of the the number of red blood cells in the body, horse or human. If you have more red blood cells than the bloke next to you, then you can process more oxygen than he can. That means that you […]
