Outstanding effort that. Lennytheshark, Guaranteed & Macha. How long since that has been done...if ever? GO PUPPET! The big question now is...which way does he jump for the Final? Unless the horse draws out with the Hot Dog Vendor I am picking it...

Hi all, I participated in my first dual code race meeting yesterday which was a load of fun (BEAUDESERT TURF CLUB) My 2 boys really struggled in the long deep grass as both of them sat in the breeze in their respective races & just couldnt...

Does anybody know how Harness Racing's icon HRNSW is travelling at present. I was told by one of Harness Racing's icons that one of Harness Racing's icons told him HRNSW was not travelling too well and suggested it was due to Harness racing's icon...

Found this on Aust Harness Racing. A different look for us keyboard drivers This week we offer you a ride on board SMOKEN UP NZ. Hop into the sulky with Lance Justice as he sizzles around Tabcorp Park Melton in 1:55 in a warm up for...

That was a gutsy win by Lenny, forced to run <27.6 for Q2 and then managed 27.3 for Q4, not many can do that. I must say I liked Anthony Butt making him work Q2, it may not have particularly helped Major Secret but be blowed letting Chris Alford...

Very sad.

I have no doubt as a investment overall harness racing beats thoroughbreds hands down:D when it comes to the returns on lets say the 200 highest priced yearlings compared to what they earn in prizemoney and costs involved during their racing days.

Seen an interesting race on Thursday night Race 2 (20.11.2011). Mitchell Reece destroyed his charger on it's first run back from a spell in a near record lead time of 33.7. He got it and the favourite beat. ...

I'm hardly a rules expert so was wondering if a stable has multiple runners in a race is it actually in line with the rules that they work together to get one of them the win? The issue crossed my mind recently firstly after watching the Young...

After his crushing win last night I reckon Mr Feelgood will be given a small break from the Grand Circuit and have one, maybe two runs up at Albion Park before he heads west to Perth for the 250k Fremantle Cup on Jan 14 and the 400k W.A Pacing Cup a...

What a win tonight lowered his personal best mile rate by 1.8 second's to 1.54 he is a much stronger horse than i thought he was can't wait for the Grand Circuit to get into full swing exciting times ahead for all contestant's

Just wondering if anyone was out there on the weekend for the sale??? The Gotta Go Cullect filly must have been impressive, selling for $115,000. Have met Jack Knight a few times and he's a real nice guy and good luck to him and Wayne with their...

Race 3 at Globe Derby, the winner runs over the last 4 pegs. Horses legs actually running on the pegs. What is the rule? Why have it if they're not going to enforce it?

Just noticed an interesting thing. Owners are charged $2,000 to start their horse in the Victoria Cup and pay prizemoney to 5th place. So 7 owners miss out and pay to provide the entertainment which then HRV wants to charge bookies to bet...

Ya killing me Chris. $2.75 was a gift and for the second week in a row, leaders back has got him on the wire. He had Mighty Q beaten at the 400m, why kick with the only danger on your back ? Me thinks trying to rub the Hall's nose in it a...

Just wondering if any body knows Harry Martin of Double Identitiy fame and if still involved in racing.

Broadway Classic, Carla Bruni & Instant Chemistry?

If anybody else can remember that far back :o a horse called Pay Me Christian set a Australasian Record at Newcastle of 1.52.8 in 2006. The now 9yo returns at Menangle on Tuesday. Hope he can run well.
