Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The most intriguing race of the night is the 3rd at Redcliffe, where the former Jason Grimson trained one-time stars Hot and Treacherous and Frankie Ferocious take on three time Inter Dominion finalist Petes Said So, 1.52.2 Menangle winner Scared Stiff, and the conqueror of Don Hugo 12 months ago Deux Ex. It’s a standing […]
Have a look at the run down the home straight at Menangle on Saturday night and keep your eyes on the horse behind the leader and the one behind that. There was a protest lodged 3rd v 2nd. I thought watching the race that it should have been upheld. HRV Stewards disagreed. They decided that […]
A bloke had a dispute with Sportsbet over $37 000 in winning multis he had on an NBL game. Sportsbet cancelled his bets, claiming that there had been an error. The bloke lodged a complaint with the NT Racing and Wagering Commission that licenses Sportsbet. After he did, Sportsbet paid. In full. A betting inspector […]
Remember the short clip we showed you the other day of WA reinsman Ryan Bell reverse head butting the horse behind him, and startling or hurting it so much that it galloped? Here it is if again if you need a reminder. Bell is on the horse in front on the inside in the red […]
It was a very Turnbull affair in the 5th race at Bathurst last night, with linear descendants of the legendary A.D. Turnbull turning out every one of the runners in the race. A.D.’s son Steve, an Inter-Dominion winner with Smooth Satin, trained four runners. Steve’s eldest son Nathan trained four too. Nathan’s younger brother Mitch […]
Craig Williams cut a forlorn figure as he trudged back to the mounting yard in tears. He’d just ridden the promising young mare Impish Lady to her fourth win in a row, and her first in town. But as they crossed the finish line she faltered and broke down. It looked like a catastrophic injury. […]
We told you way back in January 2023 that Nick Walsh was a drug cheat. His strike rates were just too incredible for him to be anything else. When something looks too good to be true it usually is. Walsh got caught with the banned performance enhancing anabolic steroid Stanozolol in one of horse’s systems. […]
“Nick who?” you ask. The young trainer whose record over the past 12 months is 93 starters for 41 wins, 19 seconds and 9 thirds. That’s almost 100 runners for a strike rate of 44.1% the win and 74.2% the place. Walsh is doing even better this season. 42 starts – 21 wins and 11 […]
