    Headlines

    todays headlines are yet another we as a industry don't need, if there is any "saving grace" with the "new" drug testing it may just get lost ( or wont be as stark) in other news going on' s from the other codes however this one has been a long time coming.

    The right reasons !
    People may be able to race competitively in the northern part of the state.Obviously this close examination of races and betting patterns has been going on for some time.
    Great to see police integrity commission and stewards all involved , but brought to head by an impending article in the Age.

    Headlines today may be for the right reasons !
    People may be able to race competitively in the northern part of the state.Obviously this close examination of races and betting patterns has been going on for some time, as has the apparent reluctance of many to take horses to northern tracks, or to drive on the same tracks.
    Great to see police integrity commission and stewards all involved , but brought to head by an impending article in the Age.
    A fair go for all !

    Having 2,3 & 4 runners in some races + usually the short fav might just have been too enticing hey.

    Sequenzia recently owned Sushi Sushi, one of the most successful horses in the history of harness racing.



    Where do these journalists get there information from? How do they retain there job, I have no idea.. SS could have potentially reached great heights, and he is surely missed, but seriously..

    Perhaps they get their information here.
    Check out the owners and history of Em MaGuan, ( and Bus To Harland) .

    If you check the history of the horse, Tuppence Moran was a part owner of Tarleton Lee

    $1,103,327 successes. Sorely in the top 50 all time earners? Does that not qualify as one of the most successful?

    Sorely or surely? Leave it the journo hey because I think he's done a decent job with his research and the story to be left alone nit picking about a minor insignificant detail.

    I think the reference was to the article's description of Sushi Sushi as one of the greatest harness horses of all time ... not the alleged criminal links

    On topic, if proven guilty and given time that is only a good thing for harness racing in Mildura.
