Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
BRC operating revenues of $73.9m reached a record. The revenues include not just racing and raceday hospitality income but include the property income from the Master Plan established in 2009, and the combined hospitality and gaming turnover from two licensed venues (Gallopers Sports Club and Souths Sports Club).

Further to our story yesterday about one M. Currie trained galloper setting a brutal speed in front that was perfect for it stablemate who came from behind and won, here is the official Stewards report as it relates to the matter. Depth Charge Began awkwardly. Stewards inquired into the tactics adopted on the gelding, specifically […]
I can’t remember how many times former jockey Gavin Rolls has attempted to get licensed as a trainer, but it more than a few. His latest effort ran true to form by failing. The QRIC knocked Rolls back for a license on the grounds that he is not a fit and proper person to hold […]
Good morning Peter Profit The Steward-in -charge in Central-West QLD should be sacked. The things that has happened since they arrived here have been a joke.. You can’t be a Steward and still be everyone’s friend like this one tries to be, its an impediment to properly performing your job. There have been disqualified people […]
The Steward’s don’t agree with me, but they couldn’t write a coherent report if their lives depended on it, so who’d listen to them? Craig Williams dropped his hands on Growing Empire in the final few strides of the Manikato on Friday night, and it arguably cost him the race. Even if it didn’t, it […]

The horse that goes psycho in front is trained by Mark Currie. So is the winner. There are no obvious betting fluctuations that suggest the tearaway was a pacemaker for the other, buy if I were the betting steward I’d be inspecting the multi bets and the exotics. Whichever way you view it, this is […]
Apol0gies to readers for the dearth of stories this week. It’s been due to circumstances. Things will be back to normal next week. Someone’s gotta keep the bastard’s honest. It might as well be us.
Trainer Shane Loone has been disqualified for 12 months for corruption and betting charges related to the race at Globe Derby on 12 August that he tried to set up to get the favorite beaten . It was a stiff sentence but well deserved. More to follow….
After months of remedial works racing at the Globe Derby track is set to return on the 12th of October, finally giving punters desperate enough to bet on the SA trots some respite from the ardours of trying to find a winner on the lowly country goat tracks Gawler, Kapunda and Port Pirie. The first […]
