Maybe it's common knowledge to some, but it wasn't to me and I've seen quite a few people mention it over the years. Once fields are out it's hard to know what the exact conditions of the race were. Short of having a gazette which changes anyway...
From time to time, usually within this Australian Forum you will see members banned without an explanation, and may wonder why. 99% of the time it is because these accounts are created by one of two people who have nothing better to do then to...
With ongoing drug scandals in Australia it's important that everybody understands what can and can't be said on a public forum from a legal perspective. A public forum IS NOT the same as chatting to people at the track. Legally it's akin to...

Hello all I think our industry needs a new rising star, and following the win of Muscle Factory in Saturday night's Simpson Memorial, he seems a strong candidate for that role. Stopping the clock in 1:49.6, he becomes the first ever sub 1:50...
