And that's a dive as well unless they have spent more money on it since I was there last. Unfortunately all the good pub tabs in Perth are in the suburbs. You're probably better off getting in a cab/uber and going to one of the inner suburban pub ta…

Thought it was a pretty useless article actually. Could have substituted the word horse racing in the article with just about any subject matter and it would read exactly the same. Nothing horse racing specific in the article at all.

Don't mind listening to Hall, he has got a good voice for it. Not sure about the bloke at PR. Wonder if those doing the hiring actually listened to his voice played back on TV or radio. Not good

its 50 mins now thumper, someone was playing silly buggers..... Where was this announced? Still says 5 minutes on the tipping page.

Would have liked to change my tip to Awesome As for a hail mary victory but it's not happening. Good luck next week Sonny

Trying to change my tip for the last but they are locked. Thought we could change 5 minutes up until the jump?

Looks like stewards have tried to sweep this under the carpet. Whenever the club colours are used it is noted in the report and somebody cops a $50 fine for having to use them. No mention this time.As we know standard practice should have been for S…

Doesn't matter who you put on these committees if they can't or won't address the biggest threat to the industry then it's all just a waste of time.Maybe they will address this issue who knows but I suspect most on these committees will be focused o…

I think FM is on the greyhound version. Think all 3 codes have formed such comittee

A lot of positive noise in the media today about the new Thoroughbred Racing Committee. They are going to address things like strategic plans, infrastructure, prizemoney, handicapping and race programming.All this lovey dovey stuff is great but unle…

Last check of the betfair pool that I noticed during the test match was 127 MILLION. Tabtouch should be letting people on for an unlimited amount at the garbage odds they offer and be betting it back straight onto betfair. They do have book managers…

Tried to have a bet on the highest 1st innings scorer in the ashes test. 100% bonus up to $100 if wins. Could not even back David Warner at $4 to win $100. Max bet $31. Unbelievable is not the right word. It is very believable for Tabtouch

Final was not much of a spectacle. Lazarus handed the race on platter. Was hoping the bull got out earlier to see it and lazarus to fight it out but alas race was all over by the time he got out.

Race 2 is a great example of why going too slow up front is actually detrimental to a horses chances rather than giving it an advantage. I'm convinced most of our jockeys do not understand this. First 3 in running finished as the last 3 despite the …

Suspect Get over it is being kept to 1200m as it can over race a bit. Going to 1400m plus won't help that and obviously winning over 1200m

Willy Pike injured, suspended or just having a break from Bunbury? Yep I like a bit of Pounamu action.. fastest last 600 of the Railway.. should be top 4 I think.. likes the 1800m. Not been riding at those crappy midweek bush events been riding S…

Barrier 1 unlikely to suit Bart unless they string out. I have everything crossed for Perfect Jewel. Bob breeds the right horses to pull this off and they are only getting better year after year as he continues to up the quality of his stock.

Tab touch still only offering an all in market

A very ordinary day from Pike. Those that think he is a super hero should go and watch all of his rides today.

Must have none Pike was going to give it none today as well

Time for a new TV dale

No good thing but Miss Rumour Mill looks like a good bet in the last at the current odds. Good run last start behind Perfect dream and should strip fitter after that effort. :-& :-& :-&

I saw the head on after the race on sky. Special Delivery did shift in at some point in the straight but towards the end Hashtag shifted out pretty sharply making contact with Special Delivery. I wasn't that surprised to see it upheld given the marg…

Well done to Tabtouch for removing some of the known non runners from the market today even though they aren't officially scratched yet. Obviously can be done.
-
Cannot believe how many horses are still in the Winterbottom and Kingston Town markets that are 100% known to be non runners. Once upon a time they would at least list a horse as doubtful if they knew the horse was not starting.I'd expect nothing le…

I'll do Race 9 for you in 4 words. Pike leads and wins

Bet you weren't on at 101 and 51As soon as she didn't win on Saturday knew she was off to the Paddock. She needed to win well to go on beyond this week as she is not bred to stay

What about the males that aren't riding, ie J Brown, R Hill, Steven Parnham, T Turner, J Whiting the list goes on... Was the point no women jockeys or jockey ability? Wasn't making a point about that as Lucy has a ride. When I was typing my post l…
