Didnt realise it was a solid shower,so no problem, as long as every effort was made to keep the meeting on.Just a shame for all involved,particularly trainers who have experienced some rough weather over the years at Carnarvon,but you can't do anyth…

4mm of rain ?

Pencil Oliver in for some big race wins,he's riding like a gem at the moment
-
Anyone from outside of NSW with strong credentials would be a big chance to win this job,unless Mark Shean puts in for the gig

Very unfair to have a laugh at the Toowoomba caller,O'Shea I think it was.I forget exactly what happened,but he may have suffered a minor stroke or there was some other illness.I forget exactly.He's back calling now and all is good,but don't make fu…

Race a horse Mid week in South Australia and see how you can get on.Sell the TAB and it will become reality in W.A. one day too

Thanks for the info Sam,I'm a bit late lodging my report from The 93rd Annual Landor Meeting,and Sam's ride on Field of Action in The Bracelet last Saturday was a gem.With 600 metres to go,Field of Action was about 4 lengths off the 4 leaders,who we…

Kane Bradley is a guest of The Club,in recent years Peter Hutchinson rode as a guest there.Newman Turf Club will hopefully be getting Bradley to ride at their meeting on August 23.

Saw Doug Mead run a 5 race program at Mt Magnet in about an Hour and a half only about 4 or so years ago.Gee it was push,push,push but he got there, just before dark we ran the last.Had to wait for the vet to fly from Geraldton,ran the 1st race abou…

Notice how good quality the Adelaide replays are and they're free of charge, note to PR

Overall Searcey is a good performer,but she does rabbit on about breeding way too much.She is on a station which promotes punting and she really has to get her head around that and know the form more than she does.She also talks a bit too quickly wh…

Reward Bet is very good and because its free, well worth getting.However, it does not pick the horses for you,so its entirely up to you to select the horses you want.Having said that,naturally my balance is in negative.But you can bet very small amo…

Overall this is great news, the old grandstand is just that.We must move ahead and build a new facility.The new stand must be multi purpose to enable hosting of functions.There is certainly a market for another venue capable of hosting functions,con…

He'll struggle to win in April at the bar ,1st Saturday in July maybe
-
I didn't hear it, that was the big race there last night.He's normally quite good O'Shea,Alan Thomas was on course,but O'Shea called the program.These things happen...

If you believe The Punting Club was actually putting bets on for their customers,then you must also believe in the tooth fairy

Perhaps there should've been a post race veterinary examination of Jason Benbow

I firmly believe there was no conspiracy.Everything BC3 has done has been a conspiracy, except for the welfare of the horse.They had nothing to gain by fixing Jimmy's death.There was no insurance policy held by BC3, they never owned the horse and wo…
-
Once the horse was sold at the sales, it was still the property of Inglis ,until the successful bidder pay for the horse.In this case,BC3 never paid for the horse,so the horse has always been owned by Inglis since the fall of the hammer.To protect t…
-
Inglis get the insurance money, because the horse was never paid for by BC3 and the insurance policy was taken out by Inglis.Doubt the horse was ever insured by BC3, but if he was ,how can you insure something you don't own ? So, there won't be two …

The point of how many are making a living is a separate issue and its not just jockeys on the bones of their backside.However,it would be terrible for W.A. racing if a meeting was called off due to insufficient jockeys .Jockeys Associations across A…

Got rides at Hobart Saturday and down for one ride at Bunbury Sunday.What are the odds ? Why not stay in Tassie for Xmas with the family and then hang around for the Tassie Summer Carnival ?
-
At least he's getting some rides and I'd say home is the best place for him

This whole matter will end up in the crime pages for years to come,using the word 'crime',You interpret it the way you like,but this will not be pretty.This punting club looked like it relied on people continually joining or rolling over their so ca…

There doesn't seem to be an over abundance of apprentices in Melbourne at the moment, so definitely worth a go for these young Perth jocks.Wont do them any harm,Perth racing can be a bit of a bubble,so get out and see racing in other parts of Austra…

These things will keep on happening forever in racing, sure people will get charged and turfed out of the industry,but when there's money involved it also brings some form of corruption.Steve Fletcher will come and go, but someone else will take his…

Things are real bad overhere,not just for Bookies,but most trainers have eaten the paint off the wall and are now chewing at the carpet.Firstly ,.no one goes to the races here,only on the 'big'days do you get a good crowd and the 'big' days are few …

Good luck to The Duck.Looks like he's teamed up with Paul Perry and Clarry Connors

Just look at the racing industry in South Australia.Poor prizemoney and TAB agencies becoming rarer than hen's teeth.They also sold racecourses and the golden goose is out of cash.If we sell the TAB in W.A., I fear the worst
