hope he's at least 95%..if he rushes it he could be in trouble. So I observed Pikey today in the flesh and also on some social media... How he has been allowed to ride (seemingly) without the doctor looking into him being fully able to carry out …

Super Smink was just a fitness run… ….. I guess punters would’ve like to have known that BEFORE the jump?

Anyone else a little surprised by the performance of the horse that win the last race? Runs away to win comfortably ~ 2 lengths, hasn’t won for 500 days, Given the 35/1 last start run in Kalgroolie? I guess off that last run at Kal you wouldn’t no…

I went to my first Kal Cup. I agree, the day was super smooth, testament to good management under trying conditions with airline staff strikes etc.The big takeaway for me this week and the week leading into the day has been the significance of thes…

Because governments want to move away from owning and running gambling operations. While reading further into this article. I was wondering what has happened about the sale of the tab when reading racing contributes 1.3 billion into the WA economy…

Not sure that I agree but that is the French outlook. They are very much in favour of the parimutuel system. They consider fixed odds betting to be insider trading. Their views may have changed since I attended World Trotting Conferences from 2004 t…

I'm sick to death of the corporates. They shouldn't be able to offer pari-mutuel bets. They just suck money out of the pools and that leaves winning punters unable to take many exotics. Minimum bet rules only extend to fixed odds. Here's a novel id…

Lightsaber by Zoustar has been secured by a syndicate led by Darling View Thoroughbreds. He will be an interesting outcross to the many hundreds of Danehill line mares in this State. Danehill both top and bottom of his pedigree. Not much of an o…

not saying you're wrong but he is linebred sex balanced 4x4 Danehill. A sire such as Manhattan Rain would be preferable as an outcross/ hybrid vigour etc to Danehill mares

Anyone try betr? I set up an account yesterday, still waiting for a bet from R4 Kalgoorlie to be cleared.Have sat on hold for an hour on the phone no answer, no replies to emails, no response on live chat.Pretty safe to say it's just another one of …

Can someone please explain the benefit to the racing industry (all codes) by the sale of the TAB. cheers Racing wont benefit but WA will get a new maternity hospital and Mark will be crowned champion of the people for saving them from gambling desti…

apparently Jake Paul owns this company, so they're trying to overtake SportsBet, TAB, etc Most on here won’t know who he is, a quick YouTube search will tell you he’s a young rich entrepreneur, gaming, professional boxing, sports betting and all the…

Well done to those doing something to change the status quo locally. A great way to attract some attention and get things happening. Personally, I would prefer to see a race like this over 1400 for something different

A study released today from Ireland, has shown a 48% decline in your horse ever getting to the races if you have tried to replicate genetic bloodlines too closely. It is a looming problem here in WA with our farms seemingly not keen on standing an…

financial stress = more shortcuts (feed/ vets etc) + greater incentive to push the boundaries of integrity by one way or another. I hope I'm wrong but it feels like it's a state of decay from here.

Actually comment made with good intentions, not sure how you saw it in a negative way. Anyway, will leave it at that, but dont want people to expect miracles in 6 months, hence why i put 18-24 months Apologies to all, misread this. I’m so used to …

"The proof in the pudding is in the eating - lets see what he can come up with in say 18-24 months and judge from there." This is the type of comment you see from unsuccessful applicants. High calibre sh!thousery

Funny that ....never in my 64 years have I been the recipient of a recommended immunisation unless there has been an actual particularly nasty global disease threat existing. I must have been lucky my "freedoms" haven't been surreptitiously scupper…

All those bagging him, can any of you explain why him choosing not to get it should result in him not being allowed to ride? For the record I’m double vaccinated and will be getting my 3rd when I’m due. But if I’m honest I make plenty of other cho…

This is the purest display of Passive aggressive I have seen for some time. No one needs to go to ‘Freedom WA’ these days, just open a Twitter account and say what you have to say. This completely exposes the agenda, and it’s more about a wacko move…

I'd much rather hear from the trainers then the same excruciating practice of trying exract something out of him after the race. It seems they (the trainers) have been told that Bob is the one to be interviewed and that no information on his horses…

What happened to all these studies and consulting groups? How is this allowed to happen? Racing should get 100% proceeds from the sale racing deserves none of the proceeds, nor should it feel entitled to it.

yeah sure there is responsibility and accountability at that level. Where they did go wrong was not selling the whole lot to the gov. went for a rails run and found backsides

How ironic that this press release should be published only a few days out from the renamed CB Cox Stakes to the Ted Van Heemst Stakes. Surely this has to be the darkest moment in the history of the WATC or as it is known now, Perth Racing. The enti…
