(Our) Princess Kennedy was a legless walker in New Zealand. In 7 starts all she managed was a solitary 2nd, in a weak race for maidens at a Riverton meeting run at Winton in which she sat on the leader Meghan Markle’s back (two princesses in one race) and couldn’t run it down in a […]
You would have expected that a Principal Racing Authority would have double checked the conditions of its biggest harness race of the year to make sure that it was correct before they published it, wouldn’t you? It’s both proper business practice, and simple common sense. So why didn’t Racing Queensland do it before publishing the […]

A senior racing executive from one of the codes has appeared in court nine times since being charged with offences last year, and to the best of anyone’s knowledge the person still has not neither been committed for trial or entered a plea. It’s quite extraordinary really. These are the dates that the racing exec […]
As we predicted a year or so ago, all of the police charges laid against harness racing identities flowing from New Zealand’s Operation Inca have been dropped. That was as expected. Now the real fun begins. The RIB wants the police to hand over their evidence so that it can be considered in relation to […]
