    i had lovable larrikin black booked and when i walked away from the trotting industry i forgot to shut down my black book. hence when he was entered i was notified..being a 12yo now i would have thought that he would be well retired.they are square gaiting him now it seems. i followed the link on black book to gawler trials....trained by f.pullicino,driven by gaita pullicino. now that she`s back in action i will be taking a bit of interest again.

    Racing needs those colourful characters who are honest as the day is long. Adds to the entertainment value.
    I'll be keeping an eye out for what shenanigans she gets up to next.
    See that her son Tony still has another six years on his DQ.

    A claiming race with a few around these odds except for an odds-on fav
    This was only his 4th start after a 2yr break
    He is now 13yo

    It was some win considering the run he had

    The term chaff bandit came about with much of that field in mind.

    If I read any stories on the driver's "comeback win" I'll chunder!

    Peaces Of You, Final Peace.
    Stewards seemed to miss that she was out of position at start ! She has picked up where she left off ! A blight on the industry.
    Don't die wondering !

    This story slipped past me and is now three weeks old. Not that this matters, because it is the never ending story!

    http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/sport/...3c1a2318d98a83

    Nothing can highlight the fact that Harness Racing in SA is totally stuffed more than this story. "A second chance", they say. Arithmetic, obviously, is not a prerequisite skill to be the HRSA Chief Executive going by what Brendan Neal is quoted to say. I can count, and the article list at least 13 guilty priors for Gaita.

    Peterprofit.com today shows in detail the offences in VCAT's determination to permanently ban Gaita. It makes compelling reading yet HRV initially and now South Australia have entertained her persistence to remain in harness racing. In doing so, they undermine the interest of honest participants and the integrity of the industry they are entrusted to promote and grow. And, for a full chunder, HRSA post a video interview with Gaita saying how grateful she is for being given a second chance.

    Gaita can't count, either. Maybe she is a shoe-in for the Chairman of Stewards job now Simon Ewen has resigned. Then again, Rod Weightman is just twiddling his thumbs at the moment!
