    • Douglas Whyte is hoping Violet Star can “throw himself a lifeline” into Classic Cup (1,800m) and Hong Kong Derby (2,000m) contention when he takes on fellow Classic Series hopefuls at Sha Tin on Sunday. The Class Three Yau Oi Handicap (1,800m) is set to be an informative affair, with Whyte’s import taking on the likes of Dazzling Fit, Aerodynamics, Flow Water Flow, Fortune Boy and Packing Fighter, who will all have aspirations towards the final two races of the four-year-old series.

    • Moi thought it was an interesting story and i'm guessing that pow @bono did as well when he tried to post the photos..only to be upended by you who obviously doesn't like new posters I picked my ears up when a TOO DARN HOT came into the ring now with a service fee of A275k ...this yearling from a 44k fee Beaufort Downs took a huge risk in sending SPRITZ over and reaped the rewards.. especially when an extra 20k suddenly entered their back pocket courtesy of an oopsey doopsey Who doesn't like an oopsey...just not in their pants..maybe DC did after that...who knows?? Fun to speculate eh... I recommend making '26 a fun year for yourself
    • Brett Crawford is banking on a significant weight swing on Speed Dragon and return to Sha Tin to propel Encountered to victory in Sunday’s Group Three Centenary Vase (1,800m).

While Crawford felt his consistent galloper could have finished closer than fourth on...View the full article
    • Dead right about the head in the sand approach. That's what NZTR have being using for the last 2 decades whilst as a recent CEO told me, keeping on looking for the next pot of gold. They've tried the tax-payer, a corporate rescue, overseas product, pokies and now aiming at the online casino business. I'm afraid however, they may be coming to the end of a rainbow that has no pot of gold. Clubs were run as businesses for a century living on their own earnings. As with all industries a few ran into financial difficulties from time to time, but few actually went out of business because of that.
    • The Monsters of the sport All strutting there stuff in incredible style tonight. 1/ Leap To Fame powers home in Kilmore Cup to defeat NZ best horse Republican Party in a great battle. Carter mixing it hard with the locals at the first corner 🤣👍😂 2/ 18 year old Jye Coney drives 4 winners at Menangle including the FFA driving Grimsons 'HI MANAMEISJEFF ' to a narrow victory over hot favourite, the current Miracle Mile champion Don Hugo in around 1.49. low flying. they bolt 5 lengths clear of the others.   3/ No room for former NZ horse 'The FALCON' at Grimsons so he sent him to Albion , where Pete McMullen wins the FFA in 1.51 with him for owners 'Grim' and 'Boots' 4/ NZ feature trot winning GUS for Pete,  resumes off 40m handicap and donkeylicks them and is near best trotter in Australasia now. 5/ Pete gets a treble with former NZer FRANCO NEL , from the deep South of New Zealand. now open class winning 12 of 15 at Brisvegas past few months,  and running 1.50 tonight winning by over 3 lengths. watch for him in some features shortly .
