Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Bailey Wheeler has stuffed up so many times that you lose count. Pretty much every one of his debacles has resulted from one or a combination of his inability to handle alcohol, his addiction to poker machines and his late night playing, and his attitude. The kid has all the talent in the world, but […]
Poor old Queensland jockey Dan McGillivray can’t take a trick. First he has a year where he gets more suspensions and fines for careless riding than the girls from A Touch of Class get roots on a weekend. Next he gets done for a positive swab to coke and gets outed for 7 months on […]
The Grahame Begg trained Royal Insignia was backed from $6.00 into $3.40 to win yesterday’s Wagga Town Plate. If you were on it you’d want to strangle it’s jockey Luke Cartwright. His was one of the worst rides in the world. I am not going to tell you why, because I don’t want to treat […]
The second pair of horses in the photo finish frame at top dead heated for 2nd in the first race at Townsville yesterday. The rider of the one in the red and blue protested against the one in the blue and yellow. After watching the video below could anybody blame them. The protest was upheld. […]
The news that the connections of Kiwi superstar Marketplace have accepted a spot in the Group 1 Rising Sun at Albion Park in July should send shivers down every other slot holders spine. There is no 3 or 4-year-old horse in Australia who could possibly beat Marketplace even if he gave them start. This horse […]
There was a riot yesterday outside the Alice Springs hospital. A perverted low life bastard named Jefferson Lewis – an aboriginal man, if man is what you could call him – is alleged to have abducted and murdered a precious little 5-year-old indigenous girl. I hate to say it, but it is tens in he […]
Lucky Lingard reports on his ever excellent racing website letsgohorseracing.com.au the following in regard to the dud start at Toowoomba last Saturday night that was declared by Stewards a beauty. God help us all. THE Queensland Racing Integrity Commission (QRIC) has advised that a panel of Senior Stewards is currently conducting a Review into a […]
Racing Queensland recently spent tens of millions of dollars putting in lights at the Gold Coast track so that races could be held at night. The question is why? Since the start of 2025 there have only been six night cards held at the Coast, plus a couple of twilight meetings where the last race […]
I am quite certain that the Kiwi 4yo Got The Chocolates is the second or third best pacer in Australasia behind Leap To Fame, depending upon whether you think he or his great lifelong rival Marketplace is the better of the two. They are both extraordinary horses, and have been since they were two years […]
