Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Deni did the double. Minstrel won the Cup. What a mighty horse he is, as tough as teak like Pure Steel. And what a wonderful achievement by Deni Roberts to become the first woman ever to drive two WA Pacing Cup winners. It was a night for celebration all round. https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/wa/GPM12122504.mp4
Can anyone tell me how HRV CEO Matthew Isaacs assertion that HRV is turning a profit this year can possibly be correct? I am not saying that Isaacs is being untruthful, not at all. All I’m suggesting is that his projections are overly optimistic HRV might be in front at the moment of it has […]
They must have taught maths differently at HRV CEO Matthew Isaacs school than they did at mine in Geebung, because his calculations make no sense to me. Isaacs says that HRV have had roughly a $3o million improvement on last year GARETH HALL: “So you’ve gone from a $26 million loss to …. what did […]
Happy to report that Bailey has been given the option to go home for the weekend. As you can imagine she’s very excited about spending time with her loved ones and sleeping in a comfortable bed with some peace and quiet. She was packed and ready to go by 7am! Her body and brain are […]
What the hell was Andre Poutama doing in the trot last night at Alexandra Park behind Oscar Bonavena? Oscar was the highest rated horse in the race by a mile at NR120. The leader was a rating 55 trotter. Common sense dictated that Poutama would bring Oscar around the field early and bore it up the […]
It is quite amazing that the imported head of the QLD Racing Review Matthew McGrath still stands by his two key recommendations that the Government knocked back, a reduction in the Point Of Consumption Tax (POCT) rate from 20% to 15%, and relocating the trots to the Doomben infield. Both proposals were utterly inane. QLD […]
Former Group 1 winning international jockey Robbie Fradd deserves high praise for the splendid work he has been doing for junior riders since being appointed as apprentice mentor earlier this year. Fradd seems to attend every race meeting he can in South-East Queensland, and is a vocal advocate for apprentices in the Stewards room helping […]
It had been 18 starts since Tizzy Lizzie’s last win in March when she stepped out at Wagga yesterday. At her previous two starts the well tried winner of 8 races from 73 starts had sat in the death over the same track and 1780m distance and been beaten. Tizzy Lizzie’s personal times in those […]
Smoken Ace had won 8 races coming into the NR 76-89 at Geelong on Friday night, the most recent of them 13 starts back in March in an NR 70-79 race at Melton. The fastest winning time it had run in any of them was 1.55.9, also at Melton, in August last year. Last night […]
I had a good go at Captain’s Mistress to win the Group 1 Queen Of Hearts at Alexandra Park. Nathan Williamson drove a bottler. She swept up to the leader in the straight and went straight past. Captain’s Mistress was home to the world. And then with 25m to go the seat fell off. It […]
