@BlindFreddy2000 Vale Bill. Bill and Monica Ryan have left an indelible mark on Tasmanian racing and my life personally. Thoughts are with Monica, Ron and all their loved ones at this time.

I’m very sad to report the loss of my great mate and friend to many, top Tasmanian horse trainer Bill Ryan who peacefully passed away after a long illness yesterday. Bill trained many winners both in Tasmania and Victoria with his most noted outstanding mare Still A Star RIP Bill

Good luck to @JoefromPrime and the team from Stu Gandy Racing with Zany Girl in the Group 2 @tabcomau Manifold Stakes at @FlemingtonVRC. The 3 year old Filly sired by Needs Further @Armidale_Stud another example of the value and quality of Tasmanian bloodstock. @TasracingAus

@BlindFreddy2000 @mmsnippets Love to see this. The @TasracingAus @mmsnippets is the best value sales and constantly punches above its weight.

LEVENDI 2yo Temp The Gods made it two wins in a row winning Race 3 at Kilmore today and looks promising. He was a bargain buy at the Tasmanian @mmsnippets Sales for $5k. Buy Tasmanian always a bargain to be had.

It is disappointing that Labor's actions have caused a delay to this family cost-of-living relief program until after the election. Let’s get on with it.  Let’s finish the job for Tasmania.

In the words of our leader @jeremyrockliff “let’s get on with it”. Tasmania needs a strong majority @TasLiberal government for certainty and stability so we can keep delivering our plan. We need to put the past behind us, listen to Tasmanians and get the job done.

BREAKING: Tasmania tops the nation as Australia's fastest growing economy over the last year 🙌

Ex Tasmanian jockeys Taylor Johnstone and @TeaganVoorham were both prominent at the Easter Oakbank race meeting yesterday winning three races between them. Taylor rode a double to keep her high up on the SA jockeys premiership and Teagan won the Onkaparinga Cup on Sir Kingsford.

Great to see Chloe get the win at @DoombenRacing in Race 7 for Team Tasmania (@TasracingAu) The National Apprentice Race Series (NARS) is Australia’s premier apprentice-only race series and showcases the riding talent of the country’s most exciting young jockeys #tasracing
