Just tuned in to Matt Hill calling the football Collingwood v Hawthorn- he is taking the pi55. What an incredible all round broadcaster - not that I didn’t already know that - A rare talent 👌
Honoured to host the unveiling of the

team and look forward to showcasing S.A. racing to the best of my ability 👍
No day has been a day without my Mum in my thoughts since she passed away 6 weeks today. Today though is her birthday, I’ve just had a cup of tea for her and a quick visit to her resting place with Dad. Miss you Mum x
Shattered to learn of the tragic road accident today which claimed the life of Millicent trainer Ned Walker and his family members. You always brightened my day at a South-East race meeting Ned 😢
#RIP
Just flying over the once Victoria Park Racecourse on the way to Naracoorte Cup day. Sad really - looking at the changed landscape, the dream of returning there one day is long dead and buried
Yet to see a Tweet from

Nothing like a humble winner.
Mind you he maybe too busy counting 👍
Well played Waz 👋👋👋
Absolutely shattered with the sudden passing of my great mate David Thomas (DT). 1 of many great memories to savour together, when we saw Winx at Randwick. You will be sadly missed by so many people my friend. Thoughts with your boys Chris & Ben & your extended family. Rest easy
This was Mum & I not long before she left a massive hole in my life. My first Mother’s Day without her. Never stop thinking about you 😢x. Please make sure your Mum has a special day
They’ve been playing for nearly 5 hours in just the Final alone - Nadal/Medvedev. Same coin as Ash and Collins 🤷🏻♂️ Really? Old argument I know but 🤷🏻♂️
Apologies people I know this seems to be dragging on forever my departure from behind the binoculars but this is a special 3rd last days calling for me. My first full TAB meeting was right here at Gawler greyhounds some 30+ years ago. Always enjoyed the opportunity to call here
Clear highlight of my day
@SAJockeyClub
today - catching up with a young lady who took SA racing by storm when she arrived from Tasmania about 5 years ago - Raquel Clark 👌
Been a LONG weekend, covered 1000kms calling Bordertown gallops, Loxton Athletics, Balaklava gallops. Just home switched on Fox, Notting Hill on, bit of a fave I must say. Got the Maltesers and beer out the Fridge. Right let’s go. 👍
Thanks to
@C_Mac_tweets

today for

In my lifetime our biggest 3 names in the training ranks now all gone from our State - Cummings, Hawkes, and the last connection to the Hayes dynasty in Tony McEvoy - sad times 😢 End of an era

Eldest boy Henry turned 16 today and off we went to get his Learners permit. He drove home and that is possibly the nervous he has made me since the day he was born. Now there’s a job I’ve always taken for granted- Driving Instructor. Hope they’re well paid, they earn it
Wow! Is there a better shot in Australian racing? Show me the candidates please. I'm going to Port Lincoln tomorrow the 1350 metre start is great, Broome W.A. I know is fantastic but what a shot that is at Dunkeld and they tell me they get north of 10,000 crowd wise

This was one of my highlights of my first day trackside for
@Racing
The raw emotion of Amy after her boy Felix Bay won was amazing. Tears streaming down her her face as she told me “how much I love him” Jumping protesters have no idea of the relationship between horse and stables
Congrats today
@HTCoffey
and loved the opportunity to call your first Group 1 winner and really enjoyed your acknowledgement of
@DKWeirRacing
who supplied your first winner, first Sydney winner, first Flemington winner, first Stakes winner and now first Group 1 winner. Enjoy 👍
Xmas time, catching up with family, I know it should not be the reason to do it, but great that it makes it happen. My 2 inspirational sisters Georgina and Anne xx 😘 😘
Just spoke with Tony McEvoy

re Sunlight.She was normal last night when at 9pm. Ate up overnight, this morning trotted & flexed up fine. Did a similar thing in Everest, bounced back & nearly won the Golden Eagle. At this stage still going to The Goodwood

As a race caller in SA you are genuinely starved of calling champion racehorses and you must be careful using that tag I know 🤔
I was fortunate to call Black Caviar ✅ - Takeover Target ✅ for me - this bloke is up there too surely ✅

Just spent time with Grant Young who has now been in Hospital for 2 months. 🤞Grant is hoping to be out of Hospital soon. He is lucky to be alive with internal issues. Wife Lisa & his 4 kids have been his rock & well done to his staff in his absence
Tragedy here
@SAJockeyClub
seems like wonderful old horse Riziz has met an undeserved end to his life. 15 wins and over $1Million in the bank. So sad 😞
Well Gytrash has arrived safely at Warwick Farm in Sydney where no doubt he will be well looked after by Clare Cunningham &Jason Collett. Meanwhile next door

He also won 2 Cups Outback at Broken Hill - Owl On The Prowl, Hawker - Overstreet. Pleasure was ours Kenny 👍
Don’t worry about penalty calls or offside calls. VAR should be used for all these players who continually go to ground for no reason whatsoever. Embarrassing for the game. Stamp it out. THEM OFF
