Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
If Popular Alm was the absolute champion that Keith from QLD and others insist he was, then how did he get beaten by Gammalite here? Poppy led and set the pace, and had every chance. He looked to have Gammalite covered on the turn. But looks can be deceiving when you’re up against a horse […]
A lot of men see a girl with eyes like this and go to water. Not Nathan Jack. He sits on their back, peels off, and does them late, fast and hard. The way he drives is like sex in a cart. Cool and calm, then so hot he is on fire. Just watch this […]
How many times do starters and barrier attendants in Queensland have to get it wrong about removing pre-race ear muffs until they finally learn. It is not that hard. Black muff are part of the gear and stay on. Red muffs come off as a horse enters the barrier. That’s how it supposed to happen […]
I never saw Sir Tristram race, but I did see his early crop sons Dalmacia, Sovereign Red, Grosvenor and Gurner’s Lane win races like the Epsom, Caulfield Guineas, VRC Derby, and Caulfield and Melbourne Cups, and I was at Rosehill the day when his Brian Mayfield Smith trained, Jim Cassidy ridder Marauding won the Golden […]
Since when had any horse run 25.8 seconds for the first quarter at Hobart and won?\ Like, never. Prove it if you think I am wrong. I have never seen it happen. Ever. It didn’t happen last night other. Truth is it that it was probably never going to either, because against my best advice […]
John Symons and Sheila Laxon had to fight like hell to get their circa half million dollar share of Knight’s Choice’s winning prizemoney for the Melbourne Cup, after RISA and/or Racing Victoria stuffed up and paid it to their old business partner, who trousered the cash. Fortunately for the blissfully happy couple they followed our […]
Nathan ‘Cracker’ Jack is a genius of a driver. But no-one ever accused him of being honest. On Saturday night at Melton he proved both. Keith from QLD had the quaddie going 1300 times one out coming into the last leg, which wasn’t hard because the first 3 winners were the odds on faves Jilliby […]
There was something wrong with Kingman on Saturday night in the Ballarat Cup. He was hanging in from the moment Luke McCarthy brought him off the fence with a lap and a half to go, and he did so all the way home. That’s not how this horse races when right. He is not Captain […]
We give Stewards heaps here on peterprofit.com, but none of it is ever personal, or intended to be anyway. Often we will slag the stipes off over what we perceive as performance issues, but like all of our stories it’s said through the lens of a bloke in the public bar at the Geebung RSL […]
30 years ago today my first child was born. Wow. Her mum has got genes. She didn’t get it from me. Happy birthday baby. Love you to the moon and back. And back again. And again and again and again……
