Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
It’s cold, wet and miserable in Melbourne, but after tipping you a $3500 First 4 last weekend the Nude Tipster Dr Whiting promises to bring some more warmth to punter’s hearts at Flemington tomorrow. The Docto’s best bets come early on in the program, so punters should have plenty of money to fill up on […]
Victorian Animal Justice Party MP Georgie Purcell is nothing if not a show boater and shameless self promoter, as she proved by wearing this dramatically styled dress to her federal parliamentarian boyfriend’s midwinter political ball. It is hardly appropriate though is it? The ball is supposed to be a non-partisan social event where ideology is […]

Hey, Simon lambert here manager for Ben Kennedy who is moving up to Queensland this week to be base in Townsville with Tom button.

Jason Grimson is not renowned as a trainer of 2-year-olds, and in the past has never trained many before. That may be about to change though if the win of Hes A Dancer on debut yesterday is any indication. Hes A Dancer had trialled 4 times for its previous trainer Michael Hardy, three of them […]

The horse was trained until a few weeks ago by Victoria’s 3rd leading trainer Brent Lilley, and before that across the ditch by Cran Dalgety, one of the Kiwi’s fined. The fastest winning time he could run […]
