Whether it is the sign of the times or the late start for the Nullarbor, didn't quite work, at least judging by the figures at Tabtouch. Last year pools 2024 were Win 24.1k, Place 11.8k, Trifecta 19.1k This year pools 2025 were Win 15.5k, Place 6.…

A Parliamentary Enquiry into RWWA wouldn't go astray. Do they ever get anywhere? I can see the conclusion now. So and so, as well as so and so, aided and abetted by so and so, fkd up. They have promised to do better next time. Thank you for your att…

Personally, I don't care which race caller it is, there are a number of things which they do, or more importantly do not do, which irritate me. 1.Concentrating on a horse which is 4 in front with 50 metres to go, is clearly going to win, yet the rac…

Any jockey riding a horse I backed which doesn't win :-S

Greens and Teals preference votes to decide election. Trumpism against Australia wrecking Duttons run in last month polling shows. Libs are running a shocking campaign. They are down 2% in the polls compared to their lead a few weeks ago, and Albo…

I don't post all that much. But I do read the forum most days. Anyway, here is a post from me. Lewis German got 10 years, how long do you think Michael Poy will get?My opinion, should get double what German got.

G-Mac,as someone pointed out to me, there is a photo montage that went around showing Democrat politicians such as Alexandra Ocasio Cortez, or AOC as she's better known and Senator Elizabeth Warren, raising their right arm in what can be interprete…

Hi Bushbookie,I wouldn't be too worried about the USA taking over Gaza. Trump likes to throw things out there. Always has. It drives the left wing media and the Democrats nuts. The point that Trump really made in the press conference which I also wa…

I doo love myself, but pushed the like symbol by accident.

Bushbookie, you have to remember that the two networks you watch and quoted from, are both left leaning organisations, who will, more often than not, find issues with Trump's economic policy. Trump knew exactly what he was doing by putting 25% tarif…

anyone remember the ants greatest fan, aunty verna?i had a bit of a crush on his daughter, Coral. she finished up doing aerobics/dancing on a cruise boat. She would have twisted you like a pretzel if you had cohabitated with her B-)

I think it was tried many years ago, probably what you alluded to in your post. It never took off. We are pretty set in our ways here, and change is never easy to bring in.Just ask the bookies who wanted phones on course so they could be competitive…

Don't know what happened there but I'm typing on an I phone.

what is the benefit of on course bookies? several times i have asked them to give me slightly better odds than the corporate bookmakers and most of the time they flat out refuse. Why would i bother using them if i can get the same odds, with bet ret…

Hi all,I have passed on your good wishes and your hopes for a speedy recovery, to Falcon. I spoke to him this morning, and he is still undergoing treatment and will be for an undetermined period of time. His doctors are allowing him out for a couple…

Thank you to all well wishers. I will post an update later in the week.

At least your testicles weren't on full display like some others. :x

Poy is his mother's maiden name.

So the hearings have started and the jockeys and punter appear to be allegedly rooted. The punter actually kept screen shots of texts between himself and Poy. Get on Racenet and read the article. The only thing I'll say about Poy is that if proven g…

I reckon Darren was busting to say, "Generosity dead as a maggot leaves its run too late", but he showed great control. :))

I knew his dad very well when he was riding at his top for Hayes.I'll just say that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, and leave it at that.

Ok, fair enough. I backed 6 winners on a 6 race program. Here's the losing race and the hardest winner to find. Looks exactly like one of my pages on the Fair. making a punters book. One race recently in Sydney a mate of mine was working on, got dow…

Every one talks about animal welfare, and I know that when we see any animals mistreated let alone horses, we are disgusted. As Falcon points out, the horses adjust to the temperature of the day. In 60 years of going to the races, I never once saw …

his dads not the most personable guy you'd meet...far, far from it.. brads the one thats a bit of a laff. Wife is lovely, he's got the personality of a brick wall.

Bushbookie is an absolute gentleman, who deserves to be successful at what is a very tough caper.

I'll be at MV on Feb 24 and check your facts bookie :)) I'm looking forward to a complete report mate. :)]

As I said in my previous post, Perth racing totally lack foresight. The climate from December through to March in Perth, is ideal for night racing. I agree with Psycho that lights are needed at Ascot. While, as he said, the first meeting would attra…

If today had been the last day of the Pinnacles, which included Oliver's last day riding, does anyone believe that the powers that be, would not move heaven and earth to run the meeting? The temperature is not expected to hit 40 until 1.00PM. Accord…

Bookielover any information on the Ponzi Scheme that reportedly has cost the Victorian Bookmakers Association $1.8m. Hi mate,The only thing I have heard, is that a well known bookmaking family had 5.5 million invested with Adams. I'm pretty sure I k…

Sitting at home having a lazy day watching Sky 1 only coz I'm not punting. So I'm taking in all the races, and some of the trots and dogs. I just watched a trot race, race 6 at Yarra Valley over 2,600. I have, from time, criticised race callers, …
