Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Colin McDowell is a wonderful bloke, one of my favorite people in the world. He has worked hard all his life, and smart too, and he built the Allied Express courier and transport network up from one truck to the largest privately owned company of it’s kind in Australia. Last year Col got an offer […]
Trainer Mark Currie has won his appeal on sentence and had his $15 000 fine for presenting End Assembly reduced by the Racing Appeals Panel. A decision in the all important appeal Ben Currie is expected to be handed down next week. It will be interesting to see if the Panel applies more common sense […]
We have been telling people for weeks that PVL was going to introduce rich new feature races in date slots that some of the foolish Principal Racing Authorities that are backing Racing Victoria’s mad-arse plans wouldn’t like, haven’t we? Well gee, we must have a crystal ball. Or an ounce of nous and a smidgen […]
This happened out at QLD Origin legend Nate Myles step mum’s place. It has to be Blues supporter responsible I reckon. They are trying all our police cars so that no coppers will be able to get to Lang Park, and they will have to transfer Origin 2 to Sydney. Bastards! We wish the officers […]

What the hell sort of name is the Q? What does it stand for? The Queensland? No, we’ve already got one. The moment you cross the Tweed you’re standing in it. The Quinella? No, there are three tracks at Purga not two. The Queer? In these woke, enlightened days who knows? The Quadragesimal? The Quaint? […]

This year them ‘dream’ was finally achieved […]
Remember the next champion greyhound that I told you about a couple of days ago? This one? Wanna See the Next Champion Greyhound? – Then Watch This Bloke Well guess what what? Last night it broke the track record at the Gardens. This is a super dog, sans the cape. Next stop the moon. https://www.tab.com.au/racing/2023-06-03/THE-GARDENS/T/G/8
