What is the current trainers leader board looking like please someone?
-
Who makes the decisions as to what gets G1, G2 status etc? Surely it is one national body so that there is consistency?

Wow, Keshaw said after winning on Rivercrest Magic that Mack Hall told him the pace would be hot. No kidding when the stablemate went like the clappers out in front. I bet the stewards miss it completely or is team riding allowed these days? True R…

Agree it may seem a little harsh but she was suspended twice in 21 rides and I guess there were a couple of warnings prior to the first suspension. Even though she was riding on the crest of a wave, sometimes the rookie apprentices get a bit ahead …

To be fair to the radio crew, and as much as I love WA racing, to be fair, there is only so much content you can produce Mon to Friday here, unless it is Pinnacles or Quokka season.

If this link works, you can see them all here... it is from the Racing WA site https://racingwa.com.au/racing/thoroughbred-racing/thoroughbred-interviews Thanks but that looks like city only, I want Provincials etc, so if you are trackside on the d…

It does look like the long-term industry families are doing their best to keep the racing industry afloat. The sale of TAB radio is another nail in its coffin. How the government can support the loss of jobs and history that is leaving with their d…

Farkn hell, looking at the post-race jockeys interviews from today at Ascot... Whoever is responsible for the shite we were dished up on Twitter needs to be p!$$ed off real quick. The jockey's faces were mostly cut off!!! Absolutely amateur fair din…

Matt Hill has lengths (and metres!) on almost all of his peers in my opinion

RWWA have an extensive media/public relations team, I think S.Butler is employed there to control and cleanse output, and others who issue press releases on positive swab inquiries etc. But am not sure they have any actual journalists. The West is …

The thing that really sh!t$ me though about Richie is, when he said how far from first to last in the call... Yesterday in race 6, prime example. At about the 500m- "Too Dardy about 10 from the leader". Fair dinkum it was 5 lengths ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM.…

How good is Richie Bell in a photo finish live. How good is Mr Bell at falling in love with Amy Jo Hayes? :x :x :x You would think on Irish day he would check to see wheres she from before she rode just in case she rides a winner. Whats the q…

How good is Richie Bell in a photo finish live. Doesn't shy away from it and seems to get it right most of the time.

What a day of racing across Australia. Love it!

Can't have you on your Pat Malone Slip... here's my 2 bobs on hopefully an easy early kill. Lazy $12 multi if they both salute R1 Zoomachino R2 Heaven Specified Happy punting

Big John has apparently been deported Possibly some decent coin gone down the drain for Perth Racing then. Flights, accommodation etc

Note sure that it was the oldest horse to win in the Perth metro area, but Lottila Bay won the Perth Cup aged 10. Some feat

Paul Jordan fined $5k. Full description in stewards report today

I know that there are no restrictions on where people can run their horses, but fair dinkum Bob running his horses at Mt Magnet is bloody poor form. Pisses in the face of the pub test. Cmon Bob, be better. Leave Mt Magnet to the battlers and the cou…

D-day for Belmont today... could be a struggle for the rest of the season after they race on the Heavy 8 (9 or 10) today I reckon

I think Dion Luciani fits your briefing Not being disrespectful but I feel that Dion is great with them young, but @Slippergypsy said they want a trainer who can keep them going beyond 2yo... my perception is that this aspect isn't traditionally a …

At the end of the day, thoroughbred horse racing is such a huge contributor to the economy and it ought to be managed and conducted accordingly. The perception at the moment is that it is not upholding its responsibility here in WA. There is a fair…

So in the past 6 months, we've had the trench at Belmont and this absolute debacle. Both have gained significant national attention which has dented punter confidence and frankly embarrassed the sport here. The boss James Oldring has been unbelievab…

Golden Saddle,--Ron Sayers Memorial both over 1200 metres, two days after the Hannans Hcp over 1400m. Be surprised the likely hood of any horses doing the quick backup from Hannans to the Ron Sayers. So Reality 36 horses of decent standard are…

Belmont Newmarket meeting transferred to Pinjarra... just saw it on Twitter.

Just saw on Twitter that this meeting is being transferred to Pinjarra due to the forecast
