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...
Be smart about what links you open Old favourites such as http://www.harness.org.au/racing/fields/race-fields/?mc=BA160519#BAC16051908 http://www.harnesslink.com/Australia/Alford-s-extra-special-birthday ...
Begin by typing a key word or words from the previous post in the Search box on the blue menu bar at the top right of every page. If you find too many matches and you know extra info such as who the poster was or whether the word you're looking...

Does anybody know how HRV is travelling at present. I was told by one of Racing's icons that one of Harness Racing's icons told him HRV was not travelling too well and suggested it was due to the CEO not knowing what he was doing.
http://www.harnesslink.com/Australia/Kilmore-rallies-for-fire-victims Kilmore opened its doors to fire affected people and animals to become a refuge To all those who had any part in this - a HUGE well done. May other clubs remember this...
Harness racing in Australia has always been a close-knit community but having drifted away from the game for a few years, I do not know all the family connections anymore so who is willing to update me? Eg. The Gath's and the Thompson's ...
See this story about auctioning Trigger memorabilia http://www.harnesslink.com/Australia/BOTRA-Auction-on-Ebay or here for the actual auction http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/161249911654?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 ...
I know this should probably go in NZ Tony but more of our posters go to NZ than actually visit the NZ board and I want an answer (so if you move it you have to answer it too) Check out the video of Race 2 at Gore last month - beautiful Gore with...
I have had to attach this blurry image or you would not believe it. I could not find a link and being a Melbourne story I doubt there will be a SMH link - usually the best way to get an Age story link. Yep the The Age has a full page feelgood...
Controversial Kev again but how can it be good for our struggling industry to see so much money go across the ditch? Add in the fact that it makes many think purchasing NZ horses makes more sense than breeding Oz I know they are not always this...

Where do I find Melton class records AGAIN? It should be easy - for Menangle you just Google 'track records Menangle' and there they are But do the same for Melton and you only find harness.org's single track record for each distance on their...
http://www.harness.org.au/news-article.cfm?news_id=32607 We are a VERY lenient lot in the harness world Witnesses say that the scene he created in the stables area at YV would rule him out of being a HRV Board member - even if that was one of...
Jason Bonnington sums it up as such: With all due respect to the Fillies edition of this race series which culminated in last week’s final at Menangle, the boys’ division here looks much more loaded with depth and top end talent so this wouldn’t...
Does anybody else think that one could do a lot worse than to claim Miss Atomic Betty in R5 at Maryborough on Thursday She is a sub 1.55 mare Her sire Lis Mara has been a flop but his pedigree is full of 'good blood' It is her dam line that we...
This is the day after Melton's first round of heats on the Saturday evening - what a long weekend you can have Stawell have a Super offer available Bus travel from Melton on the Sunday 2 course meal on Stawell Cup day plus racebook and...
Sobering thought in The Age today If even just ¼ of the Australian population get the virus, with the mortality rate at about 1% that means 50,000 deaths
I am trying to think of the name of a horse that raced in the 90's _ _ _ _ _ George He was a NZ import He mostly raced for the Manning stable Like many of theirs he raced tough He progressed far enough to be one of those horses making up the...
Fields are out 3 NZ raiders for the Cup, 2 for the Derby and 1 for the Oaks http://www.harness.org.au/racing/fields/race-fields/?mc=BA180120
The talk here is about Ride High v Lochinvar Art https://www.thetrots.com.au/news/articles/tonkin-moran-flag-support-for-ride-high-v-lochinvar-art/ But would it work? One is going to lead and go as easy as possible and the other is very...
4yo heats kick off at Bendigo tomorrow night. With only 25 mares we only need 1 more scratching and they will all qualify for the Semi's any way 3yo heats at Ballarat on Friday will be far more meaningful. The colts will have to finish first 4...
6yo Vandanta has pretty much had 140 starts without a serious spell in 4 years Starting as a 3yo in October 2017 His longest breaks have been about 7 weeks between runs in his 3yo season and 8 weeks between runs at the end of his 3yo season (he...
