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...
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...
https://ustrottingnews.com/girl-power-in-200000-battle-of-lake-erie-at-mgm-northfield-park/ Not only did Lochinvar beat the likes of Charlie Bay but Lauren is trailblazing for women. It is nothing like over here - she was the first woman to...
PP has always scoffed at the suggestion of feed being the reason Jason Grimson improves horses by lengths. I don't think he has actually changed his opinion but today he posted the following 'Letter to the Editor' of the Paulick Report (a...
Stawell is thought to be a leaders track so no surprise that Barrier 1 has won 10 of 66 in the last 12mths, in fact you might have expected more but barrier 2 (13/66) and barrier 3 (12/66) have beaten it The real surprise for me is that in this...
https://harnesslink.com/usa/whos-to-blame-for-our-slow-demise-look-in-the-mirror/ It really is worth reading the whole of John Berry's article. I could have put it in another thread but wanted to highlight it with its own Sure it is American...
https://www.theage.com.au/sport/racing/slaughter-scandal-sparks-call-for-new-racehorse-welfare-regulator-20211127-p59cow.html The Age has the above article about a report commissioned by Thoroughbred Breeders Australia which calls for a new...
More thought provoking articles from https://harnessracingupdate.com/ What you didn’t see was any replay of the accident that marred the finish of the eighth race. Abuckabett Hanover, Tattoo Artist and Linedrive Hanover finished 1-2-3,...
Yes, we are putting it here Well no doubt many of you have been following the trip Barrier 7 - it makes it tough over the mile https://www.harness.org.au/media-room/news-article/?news_id=61120
Maybe you Sydneysiders are used to seeing harness stories in the Sydney Morning Herald (as this was the origins of this article) but for a Vic to see a sub-heading 'Harness Racing' on The Age homepage - I thought I was seeing things! ...
Has anyone else had a look at SulkyAPP that they were promoting on TrotsVision on Saturday night? I am an 'old' punter so I even need some help on the basics that they are giving you for free for R1&2 Where is the explanation of...
There are tens of thousands in the region this weekend (Stawell Gift etc etc) There should be signs for tonight's meet at nearby Ararat everywhere - Stawell (caravan park), Halls Gap (Main St) but I have not seen a single on :(
Hint: NSW
This partly duplicates some other threads but their titles did not say what I wanted. Elsewhere Kyle (Amlin) has pointed out that we have an exclusive contract with Sky but the sooner we can renegotiate this the better. Elsewhere I have also sung...
I know I am an old fuddy duddy but the new ratings system tells me nothing eg 56-69 :confused: How I wish we could still have M1's and C5's etc etc which actually told you something - how many races the horse had won int that class
Did Barynya really win the Oaks last night or was it simply the horse that drew 8. I have little doubt that several of the field would have won that race if they had drawn 8. The sprint lane is a massive penalty that a leader has to carry...
I am hoping this thread may shed some light on horse names that puzzle me They're names that I wouldn't put in the Facepalm Names - Poor Horse thread and I cannot call them Brilliant and thus put them in that thread but I found them interesting...
"QUEENSLAND’S TICKET TO THE WORLD’S RICHEST HARNESS RACE THE $2.1m TAB EUREKA IS HERE!" It is certainly an interesting concept, especially the auction of the slots/draws with the stipulated horse conditions ...
PP is asking how Derby finalist Captain Ravishing is owned by APG - does anyone know? see Post 7 as to why this post and posts 2-6 have been moved from the NSW thread
The devastating loss of Dean Holland had me contemplating the risks involved with harness racing. This piece by John Tapp states it clearly and is a tragic part of our history that should never be forgotten. Club Menangle and HRA have done a great...
R3 Replay from Ararat is compulsory viewing when it goes up Zac Chappenden on the favourite was going to hold on to win WHEN 50m from the finish his sulky seat collapsed and instead of being horizontal was vertical so Zac still holding the reins...
