Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
There was a fall in race 6 at Townsville yesterday in which Lacey Morrison fell and injured her ankle., ruling her out for the rest of the card. Lacey was otherwise okay. The Stewards inquired into the fall and found that no rider/s were to blame for L. Morrison going down. We’d love to agree […]
We witnessed something extraordinary at Alexandra Park on Friday night. The Great Northern Derby, which has been run over 2700m for the past half a century, was run over 2600m instead. It wasn’t supposed to – 2700m was the scheduled distance – but someone stuffed up. As the mobile reached the release point it just […]
As you just read, Wayne Yole – father of the disqualified trainer Ben – has been issued with a notice requiring him to show cause why he should be allowed to continue to home, stable or train horses from the Sidmouth property formerly occupied by his son. The notice – which Wayne Yole claims lacks […]
By ABC state political reporter Lucy MacDonald Tasmanian harness trainer Wayne Yole has been given until the end of the month to prove why he “should be allowed to home, stable or train any horses” at his Sidmouth property following a multi-agency inspection last month. On March 24, Tasmanian Racing Integrity Commissioner Sean Carroll organised […]
MISSISSIPPI PRINCE – Raced wide until the 1000m. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no apparent abnormalities. Stewards spoke to BRC Starters in relation to the failure to remove MISSISSIPPI PRINCE’s pre-race earmuffs prior to the start being affected. The BRC starters were advised to review their starting procedures in relation to pre-race gear. The starter […]
The Stewards wanted jockey Amanda Thomson to explain her ride on Redavni in the second at Innisfail yesterday, in particular her lack of vigor in the straight. I think anyone who watches the race does. Take a look at it, and keep your eye on the horse in pink at the tail of the field. […]
A mate of mine had $2500 the win on Patched in the last race at Pinjarra last night with Betr at odds of $1.65 . It’s the horse in the middle in the picture. It dead-heated for first. My mate’s return? $2062.50. Remember the bloke had $2500 on it. He backed the winner and lost […]
Australia’s greatest ponzi scammer continues to be chased for the money he stole after his death. Not many punters ever beat bookie Frank Hudson, not even Tony Mokbel. It will be interesting to see if John Adams gets the better of him from the grave. Bookie linked to Tony Mokbel sues over $100m Ponzi scheme […]
My wife went on a cruise on the river on Friday afternoon for a friend’s 80th birthday. They were joined by an uninvited guest. No-one was brave enough to tell them they weren’t wanted. Where is bouncer when you need one?
Trainer Mark Currie pulled off the biggest plunge anywhere in Australia yesterday when his horse Tavs won race 3 at Eagle Farm. The money came for him early and came hard, and it kept coming all the way until the starter let them go. $19.00 into $4.20 Tavs was backed, and the way the race […]
