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...
I was reminded today that the best way to view this forum is to click on NEW POSTS which is on the 2nd toolbar at the top of the page. I had missed out on seeing a couple of posts I did not want to miss and using NEW POSTS would have made sure I...

I was at the trots the other night and was told that Alabar is looking for a new stud manager, is the big kiwi still at Royal Star he would be a good choice. He is a good operator from what I have seen and have heard.
I see this smart 3yo is set to join the Mcarthy stable from Tim Butt's. Looked to be NZ's best 2yo on raw ability but made costly errors, was expecting him to be NZ's top 3yo but has dissapointed me somewhat. Will be interesting to see how he goes...
Down under (both Australia and New Zealand) do you race eliminations for lucrative races? Personally I hate them. In North America I see too many horses racing to qualify instead of trying to win an elimination. Quite honestly, how do you blame...
Last Sunday's Tasmania Cup got me thinking that even though right now we have a great batch of top liners, the Grand Circuit isn't totally swamped by them. I bet the SA Cup in two weekend's time only has one or two real top liners..
Who is your favourite race caller who isn't calling the harness these days.. I'm tossing up between Terry Spargo and Brian Markovic.. I also liked Pete Smith (Adelaide), Terry McAuliffe (Adelaide) and David Fowler (QLD)
What would a harness forum be with out a Blacks A Fake thread! His run on Saturday night was super can he make it 5 Interdons this season?
any harness horses effected by the floods?
Vegas Bound beaten by Ohoka Nevada last night... hmmmmmm... well this shows that Vegas Bound isn't a GC horse yet... Is it confirmed that Smoken Up and Mister Zion are heading over for the Cup? Anyone hear of any other interstaters??
A great performance by Washakie and super performance by Ima Spicey Lombo. They went 1:56.3 for 2500 around Gloucester Park (equally track record) so they were flying. My question? Did some of the drivers miscount the laps? With a lap to go...
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed how Lance Justice is consistently abusing the new whip rules. Miracle mile was a disgrace and the last couple of meters in the SA cup. Clearly a fine is slap on the wrists for him. What happen to the talks...
Make Mine Cullen, Melpark Major, Holy Camp Boy.. hopefully add Smoken Up to the mix.. and already the race is looking classier than the SA Cup.
G'day all, Heard just a few hours ago that former NSW Chief Steward James Perry is reported missing up in QLD after his car was swept away by flood waters. His wife and daughter have been found alive & well but so far no news of James. Here's...
Has anyone got a watchlist out on the up and coming 2 yr olds of this season ????
I was just wondering how come a race worth $250k didn't attract a lot more quality pacers from the east?
Who has the highest pure speed? I still feel Holy Camp Boy does, or maybe it just seems that he sustains it a little longer. He always seems to pull away but at the finish Imthemightyquinn always seems to have one gaining on him. Well done to...
Does anyone know what these greats are up to these days?? Reading the stuff on Michael Langdon got my memory jogging about the great trainer/drivers of the past.
Melpark Major should romp it in Friday night.. Only Cincinatti Kid and Karlsruhe are the other classy runners.. but not in the same form as Melpark Major. Smoken Up's visit to S.A will ensure Melpark Major starts at around the $1.30 quote...
I have to ask what happens in Australia when you use a mobile start and a horse resfuses to come to the starting gate as soon as it begins moving. Do punters lose their wager, do you have a recall or what? In Canada, they have a fair start rule...
