Bob Peters was on the radio this morning. He said that he wouldn't run Real Love in the St. Leger if Balmont Girl is in the field. Apparently he's concerned by the rating that Real Love would get if she beat a horse like Balmont Girl. If anyone w…

Those impossible times for first two races on the 23rd at Bunbury have done the punters no favours Carey. Using the 1000m track record, 59.02 would be a sensational run over 1016m. The record shows Aerozine running 58.85 (beaten at $2.20 next start)…

I'm fresh off the Ambrasoli post - some comedian named a dog Phallic Symbol in Sydney in the 70s and it won a few on the trot. Someone must have alerted the authorities to the meaning. Came back as Fairy Floss and never won another race.............…

I was working in TABs in Sydney in the 70s. At 19:00 Mamma Lena would start her Italian language programme on 2KY with regular crosses to Paolo Ambrosoli at Wentworth Park and (in those days) Harold Park for the greyhound calls. Ads were courtesy of…

I've got an odd one from yesterday adamant. I printed out the final acceptances for Belmont Saturday 21/6 from the RISA website. In race 6 there was a final field of 13 runners with barriers allocated 1-13. I was checking bookie prices today and fo…

Understandable Dale - Takeover Target a had a hole in a foot the size of a cricket ball. Perhaps a new thread - who was the luckiest man ever born - Joe Janiak or Ringo Starr?

Gidday there racing fans - This is the same every week for midweek Perth races. As I mentioned in a previous post, the Irish firm Paddy Power have bought IAS and Sportsbet. They obviously employ price assessors to formulate markets, as they are firs…

This is identical to last week. IAS & Sportsbet are both owned by the Irish firm Paddy Power so they have the same prices. I prefer the IAS site as they show the fluctuations on their opening market. I posted last Wednesday's shorteners from th…
