  • He's the son of Peter, that says it all but actually that's a little unfair on him to say that but that rumour has been circulating for the past week and to then post it on twitter is just dumb for someone like him. If it was going to be scratched …
  • Yes as apart from the couple of genuine class horses it's a very average race and stakes mean nothing here, the class of horse is so poor on average, something still has to win Saturday races. Ask any of the leading jockeys about the deterioration…
  • Anyone who thinks any jockey is going to worry about the ludicrous whip rules on Saturday is seriously delusional, stewards here have paid zero attention to them and rightfully so, they're a disgrace. Apart from Bobs horses and one or two others yo…
  • It can't possibly win falcon in my opinion as it's going very average. If Neverland had enjoyed the same run as respondent it would have won very easily.
  • No surprise on its last run as regardless of the poor quality of that field it was a fantastic cup trial.
  • Sorry guys just watched the replay but Respondent was average again, it hasn't hit the line once all prep and I can't remember the last time it ran right through the line. Backing out of form horses to suddenly regain their old form is a quick tri…
  • That's if Delicacy runs, think Bob has a lot bigger fish to fry with Delicacy than the Perth Cup  especially with 59kg think he made that point abundantly clear the other day post race. I'm not sure about this but I think if Delicacy comes out the …
  • Very good horse but he's proven he's not in the same postcode as beautide, not many are though and think quinny would have handled him comfortably as well
  • Horse may have gone just gone stale at Bondy's and clearly has a mental issue at GP currently, might just be the best thing that could have ever happened to him racing on the big track at Menangle
  • I called them earlier today it's just teething issues, trials will be on there at some stage in the future as well. Common sense finally prevails to have a one stop shop for all your relevant information
  • Thanks, all the feedback has been good, so I must have done something right. It was a great story that needed to be told and I put a lot of time and effort into it of my own accord we don't get paid for that and have to write those sort of things …
  • Maybe so but I think I can remember seeing some races at GP in some part of the track being a little difficult to see at times because of the angle of the sun it certainly was a serious issue at Bunbury the other night, someone didn't quite think th…
  • The timing had zero to do with sky and everything to do with the free to air national telecast and airing it a reasonable time over there and in NZ. Also I think if you ran it at 5.45pm our time they may have issues with the sun partially blinding …
  • Call it the Panella / Im Victorious doesn't have a career anymore rule, the brevity of her suspension was a joke.
  • Knew at least a fortnight ago if not longer that it was gong to go to the 3m position but unfortunately that wasn't the only issue, the track was also like concrete and that's just not good enough.
  • Huge run under the circumstances but both of its two runs prior were huge as well.
  • Don't think it was after the finishing line, from memory it was galloping flying pharaoh on the way to the barrier and yes Noske was going to be a top jockey before that shocking injury.
  • Bank's fine mate stuck with Man Booker been on it at its two previous starts and wasn't jumping ship yesterday
  • Let it slip race they went insane up front
  • I am not getting into a debate mate, I am just stating the facts, you can accept them or not accept them, doesn't worry me.
  • According to any number of jockeys, yes there was a definite fast lane caused by going to the 3m position for the first time accentuated further by the fact that the track was rock hard their words not mine and the prevailing weather conditions. T…
  • Yes when you have a 108 rated horse bumping into an 83 rated  horse that won the lowest hannans in history and they're on the same weight something is very, very, wrong. There should be some discretion built in for deplorable standard stakes races. …
  • Nominations are extended as well, speaks volumes for how low our racing has sunk when you have to extend nominations for the Northerly on Ascot's opening day. But its not restricted to us that was the worst Caulfield Guineas in years and apart from…
  • Face it Damien you knocked a horse that was arguably the best horse in Australasia at the time and were proven to be incorrect and still won't admit it and you reckon I've got no idea, coming from you I'll take that as a compliment. I didnt start  m…
  • If you think it's a fantastic idea to run another laughably titled 10 group or listed 50k races for inferior horses and therefore rewarding yet again mediocrity, you're the one's who's clueless mate. Take your breeders hat off for 5 seconds and it …
  • Rio, no one that consistently stupid should be allowed to support the Eagles in my opinion, yeah Gaff for Jetta, have you completely lost the plot???
  • So let me get this straight with the current crap fields contesting what are laughably called listed and group races we have during the year rather than a real carnival which give locals something to aim at and be rewarded for on their home soil if …
  • Out of a zabeel mare and was very lightly raced and looked after as a young horse, always had the potential to be a nice horse when it matured as an older horse in my opinion. I will have to have at look at the replay. Thought it's previous win wa…
  • Breeding "value" means nothing if the horse is just hype mate and far too often that is happening, Breeders don't give a **** about the quality of Australian racing, as a matter of fact they're happy if your horse is burned out by the end of it's th…
  • Amorino is another who couldn't get warm here last summer yet went straight to Vic and continually ran well and won several races after finishing down the track in a supposedly sub standard Railway. Group 1 placed following it and was a winner at li…
