Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The Broncos looked flat and disjointed in being thrashed by Penrith and the Titans found that, as industriously as the impressive Hannay has been working behind the scenes, when you rebuild a club from the bottom up it will take time. Months at least, maybe years … Chris Fagan picked up a wooden spoon when […]
This is the beginning of the Kapunda Trotter’s Cup yesterday. See the stands and the drivers of the horses that didn’t gallop’s legs? Look closely so I don’t have to explain it. Check the rules too. What an absolute joke. Gee the SA Stewards are good. Not. Clowns in the circus. Wearing big red noses. […]
The standardbred yearling sales market is very, very competitive, a corporate battle in which only the toughest survive and the best come out on top. That best is Benstud. In the super Nutrien sale in Syndney yesterday the Judd family who own it sold 2 of the top 4 lots, the winner for $180 00 […]
All the brainless pundits are telling you that the Brisbane Broncos are cactus because they lost 26-nil to the Panthers on the weekend. Puh-lease. This is a team that got touched up by the Canberra Raiders in round 2 last year too. Who cares? They went on to win the Grand Final didn’t they? The […]
I thought the APG standardbred yearling sale a week ago in Perth did great by averaging $40 768 per lot. 2026 Perth Sale Results But yesterday’s Nutrien sale in Sydney did even better. $45 671.42 it averaged. For an Aussie yearling sale without jacked up half million plus dollar races for local bred 2-year-olds like […]
Former Prime Minister Helen Clark says the Government should have taken the same stance on the war in Iran that she took on the Iraq war in 2003, which she called a “no-brainer”. The former Prime Minister last week criticised the New Zealand Government’s response to the military action in Iran, describing it as a “disgrace”. […]
Why are respectable international media agencies like the New York Times calling what is going on the Middle East the Iran War? It is not a war. It’s an illegal invasion involving child murder and political assassination. I’ve got not nothing against Jewish people, Muslims, other religions, Yanks or anyone else. You do your things […]
Archie Just a correction. Richard Bell (pictured above), not Hill. Bell is renowned in Perth for continually getting horse names incorrect. (Editor’s note – Thank goodness it wasn’t just me) Very poor caller, always barracking for his punt in the run, predictive and overtly familiar with first names and nicknames…..was once good but is now […]
Bobo, I am very sorry any story that I wrote or published may have contained imputations that you: are systematically doping the horses that you train; are well known in horse racing circles as a cheat; tried to bribe at least two jockeys into pulling up their horses during a race in order to let […]
Corrie Knack is the McMullen, Dawson and Elkin’s cousin. He is an interesting bloke. We are not sure exactly what qualifications that the one time trot trainer and now Racing QLD trot handicapper has to be an expert in uniquely tailored nutritional supplements and stem cell treatment. There are no degrees listed on his Linkedin […]
