  • Adam McGrath is a logical choice I think, D-Mac should get it, but depends whether he wants it.  Wes will not do it, he's the manager of communications and the station, way to busy. Adam Hamilton - whoever took the $67 took gross unders  :)) John H…
  • Fair point, but if Lewis only gets 2 weeks for Red Hot Roxy which is one of the worst I have seen in recent memory. I don't see the justification in giving Mitch Miller for not pulling out on a sub par horse. Guess we'll have to agree to disagree

  • The Baileys Gold incident....its Baileys Gold everyone. Won its previous two leading in soft grade. Different story coming wide. He's a junior driver on a $3 false fav. Lewis was on a 1.04 fav who he cost it the race and nearly connections a spot in…

  • They've been doing it for years, wonder whether they write and complain to the stewards about them selves

  • Beautide not to be pushed to that next level to get up for the Inters Series here, horses well being comes first I guess. Hopefully he's here for the next two series'
  • Local Rogue took a trail on Billies A Star last start, in a stronger race you'd think they would take a trail but over the shorter trip, they could be tempted....not the best chance for the horse but. Smokey The Bandit was enormous first up, He's my…
  • Have to agree with Lincolnism, Morgan is a great bloke who years ago when he first started driving rubbed people up the wrong way but he admits that and he is a very humble person nowadays.
  • 34.7 was recorded by Crusader Banner and he went on to win, that's the fastest i've ever seen.
  • I thought he might come out at the bell too JayJay but I think he was looking after him a bit, as you said he got home well and won for the punters. I was happy to have something on at the $10
  • How did he get lost? His drive was fine. He landed 1/1 from 8 and worked into the clear with a horse belting its knee and going rough (visible on the home turn) - I think you're being harsh but that just my opinion. It was good to see him get some…
  • Read up on the rules, what Lauren Panella did was highly illegal resulting in the career being ended of I'm Victorious. What Hall did on Monday was legal and well executed...that's why he wasn't questioned, fined or suspended.
  • What he did was 100% legal and was a good piece of driving. Gary Hall Jnr* and This should be in the pacing and chasing section.
  • Good comments Kane, I see both sides and seeing as they've never driven Tricky Styx any other way...basically ever...and in saying that then I don't think Aiden did anything wrong. Justin and Jnr used their initiative to get ahead of a sit kick fill…
  • Good wrap Gilga , I read most races similar, especially The Black Lord race, before the money I thought he would lead and go close. Thought Shardons might be under-rated by most because of his claiming form but be very hard to run around. I will …
  • Tactics have made this race interesting. I highly doubt Tuxedo Tour can play a part leading. He's too inexperienced in this grade. Hercules will sit outside him and beat him. I'd be really keen Billies A Star if he had a season of Free For All compa…
  • My mistake. Very good horse but I'll reserve my opinion until he does half of what Quinny has done.
  • In the past month people have compared Vc Manoeuvre and Rowchester to Quinny, are you guys seeing something I havent?  Vc Manoeuvre although will be a very good horse.
  • Please, let's not compare champions. They are both amazing animals who have different racing patterns. That's like comparing Makybe Diva and Phar Lap.....just stop it. Didn't Bart Cummings say "Champions are to be admired, not compared" or something…
  • I agree Quinny looked well below his best on Friday night but he still run his last half in the low 55's out wide on the track. His run in the Pinjarra Cup people need to realise, or just one of you....that his middle half was in 53.9 out 3 wide and…
  • People need to show some respect. Quinny's form this campaign has been first class and he gets beaten once and everyone jumps ship. David Hercules is nearly unbeatable when he leads at GP, he ran his last half in 54.9, no horse can run quicker quart…
  • My bad, took that bit of information off Clint Hall's Twitter.
  • Let's see how I measure up against the experts this evening. R1. Interdominion Heat (Horse by Horse) 2. LIVINGONTHEINTEREST (C.W.Hall) He is your leader and is unbeaten when leading around Gloucester Park even to the point Quinny and Hoki haven't b…
  • Dasher Vc will return to the winners circle Friday.
  • Do you think I should ring RWWA and offer them the following ? Buy a DSLR, they are including a 200mm lens, around $3,000. Buy a video fluid head for a heavy duty tripod, buy one of those as well. Then add a high speed 90 mb/s CF card for movies, 3…

  • Unfortunately from a punting view those R0's are tough to bet on due to lack of ability and form or that's a learning experience for some of the horses. Unless I really like one I steer clear of them! Hayter is a decent driver, works hard. Tither…
  • Backing up after 2 days and racing roughly throughout that race, do you think maybe he was making sure it stayed in it's gear and treat it as a learning process. That's what R0's are usually used for with some horses. His first race start he gallope…
  • Wrongly Accused would be a good get for a bush trainer, if it doesn't win Friday, it'll drop back to a C7 M1, therefore qualifying for all the Country Cups in the bush which run for 10k a pop. Hard to improve off Tony though but for 15k thought it w…
  • Horse went super took the next step, In Jnr's defense he did hope for cover on the back of red salute but Voak gunned for the breeze. Anyways great run by TDD.
