Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Paraguay. Stuck in the middle of nowhere surrounded by countries who can actually play soccer like Brazil and Argentina, and the gangster state Bolivia too. What hope did they ever have? About the same as they have about beating the Socceroos. Nil and Buckley’s. $4.20 Australia to win? Who are they kidding? Just get on.
The joint harness/gallops review of NZ Racing – which was never even at all, because the gallops always held the majority vote – has come up with recommendations that are going to all but kill the trots. There are five of them. These are the headlines, Be afraid trot people, be very afraid indeed. Here […]
Let me preface what is about to come by saying that I am an Australian born Kiwi citizen and passport holder, and am very proud of it too. I love New Zealand. But as a nation we choke. That was made obvious in the 2007 rugby World Cup quarter final when the All Blacks kept […]
Fuck knows what Karl Stefanovic is on, but you only need to take one look at interviewing the mad right-wing racist Tommy Robinson to know that it’s something. This is not the Karl we used to know from the morning show. The fella we are looking at is off his tits. He’s out of his […]
Gitalong wins two races, one at Gladstone, the other at Roma. This bloke’s a rating 71 horse before either win. It doesn’t get any penalty or increase at all for the Gladstone win, and remains a rating 71. Then comes the Roma win and Gitalong goes up just two ratings points to 73. Compare that […]
Archie Get yourself over to Mt Isa on Saturday as a jockey. Ride 5, go slow, stay safe, and walk out with more than $1200 plus any prize money you earn. And $800 from Racing QLD to help pay for the trip. Happy days. Rob from Rangeview
Archie Did you watch the trial at Albion park today? Dangerous. What a disgrace to the sport this is. Apparently Grimson has only had the horse a week. He’s no GOAT, he is a fucking cheat. My mates have trained heaps of Group 1 winners and they couldn’t do that. No-one is that good. It […]
The highlights that the QLD bush town of Alpha (pop. 599) are that it has a tourism information centre, golf course, art gallery, showground, Racecourse, parks, swimming pool, tennis courts, museum, hardware store, newsagents, bank, pub, grocery store, butcher, baker – but no candle maker – a post office, BP, Caltex, craft shop, hairdresser, pharmacy, […]
There are 5 races at Mt Isa, with a total of 40 runners. Tanya Parry trains 34 of them. That’s 85% of the horses on the card. Parry trains all of the 8 in race one, and each of the 9 in race 4. She has 5 of the 7 in races two and three, […]
Jason Grimson has had Dangerous for at best a couple of weeks. He got it off the horse’s life long trainer Shane Sanderson, a Group 1 winner. Dangerous has always been a very good horse – he ran 4th in the 2024 Inter Dominion final – but he has never been considered a superstar. Not […]
