Geeze, after allegedly being towelled up by a 70+ yo man in the stabling area at Bankstown (late last year I think it was?) I wouldn't have thought that JP would chance his arm by being rude to anyone. :rolleyes:

Seems to be a bit of agro around the traps lately, Mildura, Tamworth and Newcastle. Start growing up boys, its a bad look. There is a right way and wrong way to sort out your differences and if you are going to act like kids, prepare to be smacked and sent to your rooms.

No dramas with fellas not taking kindly to each other but why not just go down to the local Boxing Gym or the PBC or whatever, pull on the gloves, have a nice old whack at each other and then be done with it. The on-course stuff is madness.

If you watch the replay in question, Hangover Joe trained by M Jackson and driven by Guy Chapple gets the lead and 2 horses get caught 3 wide, Stevie Harlyn (N Clarke) and Sticky Fingers ( M Callaghan), Stevie Harlyn eventually gets outside the leader, and Sticky Fingers comes up 3 wide looking for the death seat, but N Clarke won't give it away, M Callaghen eventually restrains his horse back to last and goes up the fence. In the end, Hangover Joe just gets beat in the last stride or so..........the stewards questioned N Clarke about going forward compared to restraining in most races, and not giving the death up! Sticky Fingers even after the hard run still plodded home in the straight. Obviously, M Jackson believed and he is probably right, that without the pressure from the other 2 fighting over the death seat, Hangover Joe would have probably got home! So he gave a gob full to M Callaghan!!!

The rights or wrongs of this incident aside, as an interested onlooker/owner/punter I freely admit to having stood on the grassed side of the fence & given the odd driver or two a spray over the years, no question.
One time out at HP I gave Thorny a spray for a drive on Amorts only to watch the replay & find that I had not in fact seen what I initially thought I had seen. That cost me a bottle of Johnny Walker Black Label in a rather nice presentation box. :o

At least you had the decency to apologise triple, everyone thats had a few drives has copped that shit of the punters and some of it is really funny when you look back on it.

My Dad's favourite that he copped off the one bloke almost every week at Newcastle years ago was " you couldn't drive a baker's cart horse you goggled eyed bastard" dad wore the standard back horn rimmed specs that were "all the rage" in the sixeties/ seventies and he still gets a cackle now and then about that one.At the time there was still the odd bakers cart around in Newcastle so it fit well, today most people would look at you as if your demented if you used this line.

cheers,

Dan

My default driver insult is..."You couldn't drive a greased stick up your own backside with a rubber mallet". Invariably gets their attention. ;)

I remember giving a gob full to BPH at HP a few times, he would go around lap after lap looking up in the stand to find me, I would just step behind a concrete pillar and wait for his next lap! I think I used to get him annoyed!

Trevor once told me BPH has the eyesight of Mole from Wind In The Willows so there was no need to hide behind the pillars, he wouldn't have seen you clearly even if you were hanging over the fence with an orange flashing light strapped to your head. It must have been pretty bad... because one day when they were playing golf Jerry told Trevor that for the first 12-18 months that he had the horse BPH had thought OSV was a chestnut. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

That explains a lot..........like the night he drove Koala King at Penrith, buried away on the fence at 1/5!

Checkout the field in the 1981 A G Hunter Cup, Koala Kings 2nd last race win............it makes me salivate at what a great field went around! As one great sports commentator would say.............."SPECIAL".

Ray Maroney is another with shocking eyesight.
There was this chicky babe behind the counter at the Pie Shop in Goulburn and Ray was telling me what a good sort she was. He was so enamoured by her beauty that I just had to go & have a look....so I went in their and snapped off this quick pic with the camera on my mobile phone.

I heard there was a fair bit of a ruckus at the Goulburn Golf Club later that night...because she was an old flame of Kim Ridley's and Kim thought maybe Ray was cutting his grass. She had also, at one time, been romantically linked to Goulburn Pacing Club stalwart, Mark Croatta. It was on for young and old.
