Going back 15 years or so, there was a race at GP with "Takem Easy" "Easy Big Fella" and "The Big Easy" going around. Sounded like Bell was having a stroke. Go "Easy" on him ,G-Mac

Bushbookie,There was a meeting held on the grass at the (KBRC) Kalgoorlie race track, by the Golden Mile Trotting club,I think back in 1994 it was quite successful.Regarding the crossing at the track they put grass clippings on it so there was no r…

Sorry mate meeting was at Caulfield.Still a big result.

In his day, I don't think Tinny had a problem with not enough colours to field a full field. I too, disagree with driver colours. Lightening, I see Tinnies wife Karlene (nee Thorn) originally from Kalgoorlie , trained a winner at Flemington today, a…

Well done, Larry,done it tough and still got the chockies,thoroughly deserved, he is a beauty alright,

Looking forward to the Miracle Mile tonight ,what a great field,the best I've seen for years .Hoping Larry can hold them at bay, definitely no easy task.Grimson, tacks a leg on most horses he gets and his most recent aquisition Chase A Dream might …

And were the colours he used when he was training.No owners,no horses ,no trainers,no punters, lets look after the ones that are always putting in.

As allways im the poster who can see all sides of the discussion point Now if i was an owner , yes i would like my colours because im paying the bills etc However if you look at the other states who have brought this in for a fair while like Qld V…

My opinion,Owners colours first,Trainers colours second and a distant third club colours and no other starters.

Spinking ,Joe didnt mind spashing it about,his horse Maldivian was scratched from the Caulfield Cup reared and hit head on foreign bit of metal placed there to hold a microphone of some sort in place, was being touted a good thing before the race.

There is a big problem with this new law stating that deposited funds must be turned over, as most outlets have auto Tab machines popping everywhere and there are less window operated machines with a till,even on course ,an Eg. GP on Tuesday nights…

ThLook the only thing which rings a bell and im going purely from memory and this was a fair while ago just after that real long saga But im pretty sure there was a pacer called Mickleberg , it was having its 1st start , and the form comment read …

According to all reports released to the the public that I have read,Ritalinic Acid was only positive in the blood sample post race and not in the urine sample.Correct me if I am wrong,if the horse had not unfortunately broken down and Euthanized an…

Gelding, mare what's the difference these days. Nominate your gelding for a mares only race and I'm sure someone will explain, why you never got a start.

The gelding is a mare.

Both positives in WA ,Filthy Habits was the galloper and Chaco Eagle the pacer. Tend to agree regarding penalties, repeat offenders are numerous.

Precision1 I think I can assist with you query about pre race and post race/post mortem.Pre race blood tests in racehorses are Only to detect Bi-Carb levels, So Ritalin wouldn't be tested pre race... Pre race blood tests do detect other irregulariti…

The original reason for fining drivers on the leading horse for drifting up the track allowing a run to their inside,was to try and stop drivers running up the track impeding horses to their outside.

I’ve said it before I’ll say it again,until rwwa build a training facility your not going to get to many new people into the industry,the cost of land these days no young person can afford to set up a property and train 10-30 horses, And while they’…

Like most things the NR system has its positives and negatives .My thoughts are that,although it is a huge improvement on the HWOE system,it could be a lot better with the tweaking of a few rules and policies. Firstly my biggest bugbear is horses wh…

TRUE Be interested to know that 259 trainers left the percentage over 65 would be, Just did a quick tally of trainers in the last fortnight who started a horse.In that group 63 trainers are coming down the straight with 1 lap to go and are over 6…

Pinjarra do a good day out the few times ive been 90% of the crowd are pensioners and the retired which is great gives them a good day out, but when your talking about patrons that spend a bit of money over the bar and the on course betting its no…

Why are we talking about Bealawyers leading record after this race when the horse did not lead (regarding change of tactics) etc and yes put 184 starts before this race in my post to align with Warrens comment above.
-
Not sure who we are talking about here as Sagatious lead from gate 2 and the winner Bealawyer (184 starts) started off the second line in gate 9.lobbed the one,one, crossed to the fence behind leader turning for home, before pulling to its outside a…

We all have our own opinions and are entitled to them ,I too agree that based on records,what they achieved,their racing styles and what they brought to the industry that Pure Steel was the better of the two.But that doesn't mean Pure Steel would be…

Not sure if this was made public or not,but back when, Pure Steel and Markovina were racing against each other, there was conjecture who was the better horse.Both Roberts and Croft claiming their champ the better.Croft;s argument was that Markovina …
