  • Strewth i gave up on it years ago online --- never used to work at all on a consistent basis. Plus the delay seemed to be minutes rather than seconds...
  • So Jonesy what you are effectively saying you don't believe each case should be judged on its merits. Obviously you've never heard of the basic principles of Westminster law. The horse in question had no form, no stable support and ran according…
  • Seems light to me---3rd offense (and only 6 months after the second offense) and he gets only 2 years...lenient.
  • and even more importantly employ someone who understands pace in races.... would love to see our stewards as active as the vic stewards are just now scaling fences and actually looking for trouble rather than looking to avoid it....took a bad state …
  • I think is Piston is dead right here--also thought the horse only really picked up in the last 50 when he stopped with the whip and concentrated on getting the horse balanced and giving his all....reckon the biggest fines should be for horses out of…
  • The wording of the stewards report is pathetic. It is almost impossible to understand what happened by reading the report but maybe that is the idea?? They have now rewritten the stewards report and it is more understandable, even if the decision ma…
  • I reckon this is a terrific initiative and the stewards here deserve a huge wrap. The more effort we put into catching those cheating the better chance we have of maintaining racing as a viable betting medium into the future. The USA shows what happ…

  • its a state of affairs that for sure
  • The stewards report is rather hard to understand...surely if Mr Warwick asked for permission before acceptances then he should not be fined 500! If he did not ask then they should not let the bloody horse run.... backed off the boards and wins. Laug…
  • I was certainly not meaning to criticise the Northam club and it sounds like a great crowd- I used to love heading up to Northam in the days when the racetrack was the best place to bet...

  • Ok sorry to harp but it just gets to me the way the racing authorities treat punters on these matters. NO mention anywhere at all that JUMBO was gelded, not even in the stewards report. ( maybe the report I heard was wrong and he has not been gelded…

  • Just read an interesting article on gelding by a hong kong racing journo that I really like reading http://www.scmp.com/sport/racing/article/1072457/cutting-chase

  • for wot its worth there is no check for gelding once a horse starts racing, so it is possibile for a horse to have many starts as a gelding with knowone but connections knowing It may well be possible but it is illegal...its also possible to run ful…

  • Did NOT win on the race but how good does Willie look when he leads...it is just so bloody rare to see him go forward.
  • JUMBO... 2 outa 2 and punters are rightly screwed..disgraceful lack of information for the punter.... good advertisement for the chop though

  • The first new GELDING won...cue the paltry fine and happy connections...

  • listened to the cup and it sounded like a fantastic race...the 2 best horses cleared out and went head to head the last 400 metres and Dasher added another country cup to his collection...
  • it's a myth about 2 y/os having to trial over 1000, Louie proves that every year could not disagree with you more...
  • AGREE... They really should give boy hill back his 4 kilo claim and perhaps someone should tell stevie boy that smart twister is a horse that likes to lead!
  • Maybe someone has a problem with the premium charge and is betting against themselves? given cheatfairs penchant in the uk for freezing accounts that would be a very dangerous gamble...
  • not sure what was going on but 150 thousand traded on a nothing gero 0 to 63....fwiw the horse which held 150 thou won!!
  • cheatfair just now you can have 50 thousand on at 2.98 and some is trying to have 75 thousand on at 3.00...someone with a lot of money is playing around with big money for gero...
  • fair dinkum brain dead jocks...great great rides by some of our clowns in that race and after every single leader wins they are all desperate to sit last on the bloody fence!...on a positive note fantastic positive ride by young Natasha Faithful
  • WA---pininci backed gets back to last and 3 wide and bolts in...eastward drifts like a barge on cheatfair and is gone at the 600 metres and runs a long long last... 8-X
  • 9 minutes late this time...getting worse and worse
  • fooken bunbury kills me... what the hell am i doing betting down there--winners always far too short or impossible, get me the hell outa the place and bring back pinnie, albany, barker, narrogin....any bloody where except bunbury ( well not kal )
  • i also backed ( my biggest bet today) milnathort and could not have had toorak leading...there were some jockeys desperate NOT to lead thats for sure...(as for the ride on milna fair dinkum 4 kilo kid could have done a better job)...sometimes i wish…
  • It was good to see the article in the West diva and surely anyone with any understanding of wagering can see it absolutely ridiculous for WA bookies to now have to pay a higher levy than anywhere else in Australia with no relief of other charges and…
  • Karaka diamond for sure --shoulda remembered that one Ngawyni...( darlington won in the bush in a legless straight dash and i was thinking more about town )...1 town winner in the last what 5 years that had only one 400 metre trial as its lead in..…
