Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
I am not saying for a second that that trainer Robert Garrett is guilty of anything other than bad luck and living such a straight life that he can’t spot a glass pipe jockey when one is staring him in the face. But gee doesn’t the decision in his meth positive case open up the […]
Ever since the Stewards raid that we told you about on SA trainer Kevin Weidenbach’s place, poor Kev’s wheels have gone wobbly. It’s weird. Weidenbach has trained 51 from 313 this season, but since the Stewards came knocking he has gone like a busted arse, and has trained just one placegetter from his past ten […]
A fortnight ago Racing Victoria CEO Aaron Morrison (pictured above) was telling us that the proposed changes to gambling advertisement and inducement laws would slash 30% off betting turnover, and lead to the wholesale closure of country tracks. A Seld-Defeating Argument? – Racing Victoria CEO Needs to Be Careful What He Doesn’t Wish For, Because […]
Fratianno started at $1.35 in race 2 at Tuncurry yesterday. Those who backed it at those odds must have been absolutely off their heads.

My wife is a pretty great painter. She is one hell 0f a woman too. Hot birds. They are the secret to a wonderful life.
Last week we told you the story about how three licensees copped 3 month suspensions for their involvement in accidentally presenting the wrong horse to race at Albion Park, and how the Stewards whose job it was to ensure the right horse was presented didn’t. In QLD the Stewards are Never to Blame – Part […]
See jockey Bailey Wheeler on the horse in the red and white stick his right arm out and push fellow rider Tahlia Fenton back in, just as she was about to come around the grey and take her rightful run to its outside? That wasn’t careless by Wheeler. It was deliberate. Foul riding it was […]
Did you hear the one about the bookies clerk at Saturday’s Muster Cup meeting in Gympie, QLD on the weekend who got caught out by the oldest sharp punter’s trick in the book? “$230 to $20 on the six”, the handsome six foot six tall punter who approached shouted as he handed over his lobster. […]
