Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
A week ago we told you that we didn’t quite believe the official reason for a trotter named Tedesco blowing from odds on out to $4.40 and getting beaten. Our view was that it got rolled because of the David Moran drive. I reckon we were right too. Last night Tedesco was backed from $2.50 […]
Remember our story The Sussest Race in the World, in which we told you a couple of weeks ago about the rort the Reece Moore stable pulled to get their odds-on favorite beaten by one of the stablemates in a race in which Moore had four of the six runners? The odds on fave that […]
The former King of the Brisbane rails ring turned professional trot punter Lindsay Gallaher has been banned from the birdcage by QRIC Stewards. Gallagher – who many believe is the ringleader of a cartel of trickiness at the trots – has been regularly seen in the authorised persons only area at both Albion Park and […]
This is the horse Dystopian after it ran in race 5 at Cannon Park in Cairns yesterday. The horse was fractious in the barriers and reared, hitting its head on the top of the stalls. The impact caused Dystopian to suffer a deep laceration to its upper forehead. For reasons only they can explain neither […]

Then how about this one by Brad Hewitt on The Locomotive at Menangle.

https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/wa/NMC15022504.mp4 Take a look at the drive of Gary Hall Jr on the$1.30 favorite Henrik Larson at Northam on Saturday night. It was the greatest dead ‘un you will ever see (until you see the next one). Hall Jr just flopped the shortie out of the gates and landed it out the back at the […]
https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/nsw/BBC16022509.mp4 We think someone may have made an ever so slight mistake with the placings of race 2 at Blayney yesterday. Jungle Dragon was a class above his rivals in the race, but he wasn’t 213.1 metres above them. Or not by the length of our tape anyway. Oops. Update Someone at head office finally […]
This is the message that came up when we tried to access Sportsbet last night. Our VPN wasn’t turned on. Location settings were enabled. I guess the Federal Government must have just banned gambling in Port Douglas. My wife reckons it will save us a fortune. Oh she of little faith.
This is taken verbatim from the Stewards inquiry into Jason Maskiell’s hook job at Seymour. It was all his son’s broken collarbone’s fault. Jockey Maskiell’s mindset was all wrong. CHAIRMAN: Okay. Is there anything you want to put forward now to the Stewards? MASKIELL: Yeah. Yeah, just in hindsight, my mindset was probably a bit […]
Jason Maskiell in race 4 at Seymour on the 15th of November. He is in the green, yellow sleeves and red cap, riding the horse with the white blaze. Maskiell one race later, in the yellow with blue and red cap, near the fence. There is a bit of a difference in the rides isn’t […]
