Would love to see the head on view of race 1 out the gates and down the back. Just like Ernie nearly put through the running rail when they hit the course proper. Stewards seemed a bit blase???

:-? what if one threw a plate? -or played up in the barriers and goes through the vet exam etc etc I'm sure it could be done - here's my suggestion how Pre- race Jockeys do not discuss race with Trainer and owners - they will need to arrange a…

Wahoo!!! and that is what racing is made of!

Look Slip.... I'm not covering their backsides. I along with you have said after the umpteeth suspension, er permanent disqualification??? But sometimes good comes from bad. Connell injected thousands into country racing when no one else would. (Adm…

As I said Slipper... vagabonds and heroes.....

Just a point britbat. One of my pet hates is riders not riding to the "line" which incidentally is what they are paid to do. Toned got beat a nose to 4th and cost their owners $950 in stake money. Everyone seems to forget stake money is now paid to …

Is this a situation where the stewards should be putting in a protest on behalf of the punters???? As most trainers/connections are too busy watching their own mounts to be counting forehand or backhand whipping of other jockeys. Can stewards do th…

Apprentices should be managed correctly. Keep to the country until the claim goes, then to the provincials claiming 3kg until that goes, and then to town claiming 3kg. A kid could ride 240+ winners claiming at least 1.5kg in each of them if handled …

Rio, I am disappointed in your attitude. (You're real name isn't David is it). While racing is a business, it is not like any other business in the world. It's based on hopes and dreams, vagabonds and heroes, rags to riches and vice versa. If you se…

Yep. Many of them run their fastest races after they are"retired" ;) =))

Leave it as it is. Whats the difference from weighing in light to falling off, dropping their whip, making a bad decision in running? Jockey has made a mistake. My pet hate is easing before the line, especially when running 4th to 6th. How many time…

RIP David Young

AN embarrassed Daniel Moor says horses weighing in light should be treated as scratchings rather than being disqualified. For the second time in five months, Moor was the scorn of punters on Thursday when the jockey weighed in light after scoring …

While we are on the issue of ratings another issue arises. Jockeys not riding out their mounts to the line. I don't mean flogging a dead horse so to speak but this dropping the hands and easing just before the post (and in some cases a lot earlier) …

. Old story; they raise them in ratings too quick and don't drop them soon enough That is what we were really flapping our gums about TH..The longer you watch it - especially if it is one of yours - the longer they take to come down...However as so…

Its time someone with authority pulled David Hunter and his underlings into line. They are handicapping (sorry rating) every horse in this state as if they know how each horse raced at every start and they do not. A couple of years ago when we queri…

Selling an asset that gives you an income stream means that sooner or later, what you sold it for becomes 'unders' if the new operators do things right. This is very short sighted of Barnett & Buswell, Politicians have been doing it for years. …

We employed his father Jimmy when he was playing for North. Jim was a lovely bloke, quietly spoken, but who wouldn't cop cr@p from anyone. Unlike his brother Phil, Jim didn't have a work ethic and only lasted three days in our factory. He called…

bear in mind, and i stand corrected, there are only 3 x 2400m races in WA. the derby, oaks and perth cup. not so long ago there were quite a few, especially over winter, the winter cup, belmont cup and a number scattered throughout the calendar. w…

Aknightus was 0/53.....and went on to win 7/111 ! And Donny was in Bali. His daughter saddled it up =))

Disgrace of a field that this product over here is getting worse by the day dead set laughable Dropping the distance didn't improve the quality of horses, so might as well put it back to 3200m to make it interesting again :-bd

Ascot Saturday, 23 November 2013 - Race 9. the Crown Lager Sprint (1200m) Jockey Brad Parnham (MARMAA) was questioned regarding his riding of the gelding over the final stages of the race. It was ascertained that Jockey Parnham had ridden MARMAA …

Sorry everyone (and this probably sounds like a dumb question) but why did mailman leave? Was he blocked or deleted by the mods or he left because he wanted to??Mailman self imploded on Saturday......but tomorrow he may well be back as the Postman!…

Was paying drug money for a not so good trainer at Caulfield. Would have been better of with some bush hack for 50 bucks a day. Yep. Had one with a trainer in Sydney. $100 a day plus extras. Even got charged track fees for every day of the month. A…

Try this one. Race 3 Mt Barker. Wolfe Dreams (winner of $512k) raced in Perth 4 starts back as M91 starts as C82. Same race Timely Reign ($188k) raced in Perth 2 starts back as M82, wins one in Albany, starts as C88. Not really complaining about TR …
