Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Detective Constable Daniel Pool is the NSW cold case copper whose investigative genius has put Chris Dawson in the dock fighting for his life on a charge of murder. If it was your life on the line you’d like the police officer putting it there to get the basics right, wouldn’t you? But hey, what’s […]
The word floating around in smart circles is that what you will see Muncie giving his gallopers in the videos when they are released is a blast from the past, back to the future. Snake venom they reckon it us. The juice that can’t be swabbed. I dunno if it’s true. But the people who […]
We wrote yesterday about the boy racers and bogans ripping up the closed down trot track at Forbury Park, and suggested that it would be a great earn if the near-defunct club adopted it as a business strategy. Who were we to know that the Highlanders supporters were merely ripping off an idea from the […]
You called any suggestion of a confirmed sighting as a cruel hoax, didn’t you? Yes. You just decided that you didn’t accept their evidence, is that the position? No, I decided that their evidence wasn’t sufficient to get to the level of it being a confirmed sighting, in my view. So again, it was any […]
Isn’t it strange that a near two-year Steward’s inquiry into suspected doping by trainer Chris Munce comes to light just 4 days after the last race of the Brisbane Winter Carnival. I guess it’s coincidence hey? Just like it is that Munce has been charged with doping a mare, and that 6 of his 7 […]
The Brown Rice man teaches Brodie Loy to walk like a duck The last time I spoke to Ronald Johnson – the aka Brown Rice Man – was just last week. He was living in Toowoomba and about to make his way slowly up to Port Douglas via the inland route. Ronaldo wanted to camp […]
By Adam Hamilton 10:43am • 28 June 2022 TOP trainer Grant Dixon thinks his outstanding three-year-old Leap To Fame is a false favourite for the $305,000 Group 1 Rising Sun. I wonder if trot writer Adam Hamilton ever checks the betting markets before he writes stories about them. This one published on Racenet yesterday works on […]
There is something seriously wrong with harness racing in Wagga, and it’s got nothing to do with the horses. It’s Harness Racing NSW. First they spent outlandish sums of money in the vicinity of $15 million constructing a new track, one that was supposed to cost circa only $3.5 million. After delay upon delay, and […]
I Cast No Shadow is a smart pacer, there is no doubt about that, but is he really good enough to run 1.4 seconds faster than three-time Australian Horse of the Year and triple Inter Dominion winner Im Themightyquinn to break the track record at Albion Park over 1660m? First-up since April? In a trial? […]
Boncel Benjamin won the Inter Dominion last year. Not long before that it was running in claimers. I don’t need to tell that rock n’ roll Jill – Jason Grimson – trained it do I? Jill could train a three legged donkey 14-year-old camel to win the Miracle Mile if you asked him to. The […]
