Chris Waller gives hobby trainer Craig Cousins reason to believe he can complete Stradbroke Handicap fairytale
As he counts down the days to a fairytale crack at the 2025 Stradbroke Handicap, larrikin Brisbane hobby trainer Craig Cousins has the words of Chris Waller ringing in his ears. It will be a David versus Goliath battle in the Stradbroke as 60-year-old Cousins, who only has three horses in work, takes on some of racing's biggest names. Cousins knows he has a good horse and a good Stradbroke chance with home-bred hero The Inflictor, who is a $15 chance in Queensland's most prestigious race on Saturday week. The Inflictor qualified for the Stradbroke by scoring a golden ticket when winning The Gateway at Eagle Farm and he rubber-stamped his claims by scoring at Doomben last month with Nash Rawiller in the saddle. Enter Waller, who has infused Cousins with extra confidence and belief heading into the $3m Stradbroke. 'I had never met Chris Waller before, I had just seen him from a distance and that was about it,' Cousins said. 'He's obviously a master at what he does. 'I was walking around after the race the other day and I heard someone yelling, 'Craig, Craig'. 'I recognised the voice and it was Chris Waller. 'He shook my hand and congratulated me. 'Chris said, 'this is what racing is about, this is a great story'. 'He said he wished me all the best for the Stradbroke. 'I told Chris he would probably have a good Stradbroke horse himself. 'He said, 'don't worry about mine Craig, yours is a genuine chance'.' The Inflictor dominates Race 2 at Doomben! ðŸ'° @nashhot — SKY Racing (@SkyRacingAU) May 24, 2025 Four-year-old The Inflictor has won $499,000 in prizemoney and will add another $1.8m to that haul if he scores the Group 1 Stradbroke at Eagle Farm. It would be one of the greatest stories in Stradbroke history. Cousins juggles his day job as a truck driver with his work training horses but will put the handbrakes on the truck driving job next week so he can enjoy Stradbroke week. He has even bought himself a new suit for Stradbroke week and several new ties. He plans to lap up the week and go to Breakfast With The Stars at Eagle Farm on Tuesday as well as the barrier draw function at The Star on Tuesday night. 'Life wouldn't change too much if I won the Stradbroke, but it would be a bloody good feeling,' Cousins said. 'My horse's win the other day was really impressive, I didn't realise how impressive it was until I watched a replay later. 'I can only have three horses at the one time, if I have any more it's too hard doing it one-out. 'I do get an occasional hand off different friends, but most of the time it's just me. 'This horse will have a red-hot go in the Stradbroke.'

Sebastian Fundora lobs first fight build-up barb at Tim Tszyu's team as rematch confirmed
Tim Tszyu has boldly promised to 'reclaim the throne' in his world title rematch with Sebastian Fundora, while 'The Towering Inferno' lobbed the first grenade of the build-up by claiming his more experienced team will be the difference on fight night. Tszyu is in America for the official announcement of the bout, which will be a co-main event to Manny Pacquiao's welterweight world title comeback against Mario Barrios at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on July 19 (July 20 in Australia). Tszyu and Fundora had a tense face-off after the official press conference in Los Angeles on Wednesday morning (Australian time), where the American threw out the first jab of the lead-up. Tszyu's team copped months of criticism in the fallout of their first fight last year after being unable to stop the river of blood flowing into his eyes from a cut on his head. The Aussie had dominated the opening two rounds of the bout before an elbow to the head opened the cut and changed the course of his career. Tszyu has stuck solid to the same team that worked his corner that night, with trainer Igor Goloubev, cutman Mark Gambin and cornerman David Barker all working his comeback win over Joey Spencer in April. Fundora is managed by the veteran Sampson Lewkowicz, and is trained by his father, while his sister, Gabriela, is the undisputed flyweight world champion. And he says his team will make all the difference on fight night. 'We had a plan for the last fight, we'll have a plan for this one,' he said. 'Who has a better team, that's who's going to win the fight and for sure, my team's better. 'I just have to listen to my dad and I'll be great.' Tszyu will again keep the same crew he had in their first bout, and wants to repeat the dose of the opening two rounds, when he hurt Fundora with a pinpoint right hand. 'It's a new chapter, and even thought things didn't go my way, I intend to pick up where I left off,' he said. 'I know Fundora is one hell of a fighter, one hell of a champion. 'He's the current king at 154, but it's my turn to reclaim the throne.' Tszyu had been preparing to fight Keith Thurman in his Las Vegas debut 14 months ago, before the big-talking American pulled out injured. That left the Aussie just two weeks to prepare for the 197cm tall Fundora. 'I've had 10 weeks to prepare for his style, which is a blessing,' he said. 'Knowing you have two weeks to prepare for Fundora is quite hard. 'That's no excuses. It's about working out a certain game-plan and working out the mistakes that were made before. 'Things were going according to plan (before the cut). 'I can't go back and relive it, but I have to put on something that I put on before. It's simple, put on some boxing. 'I'm already prepared. If you tell me tomorrow we can go at it, we can go. It doesn't bother me.' Despite his height and reach, Fundora loves fighting on the inside, but Tszyu said he has the strategy to take him down. 'Me and Fundora, we both like to press and we both bring the action,' he said. 'Fighting against Fundora can't be technical. 'You can't really stay on your distance and take your time with him because he's so tall. 'You have to make it a fight and bring the action. 'I'm just going to chop him down. Chop the tree down from the legs up.' Meanwhile Fundora gave a blunt response when asked for a prediction on how the fight will go. 'Repeat, simple as that,' he said. 'I don't think this fight goes the distance.'

Unexpected chance for Emily Lang to score biggest career win
Don't miss out on the headlines from Horse Racing. Followed categories will be added to My News. Emily Lang is poised to snatch an incredible slice of riding history and become the first female jockey to claim the Brisbane riding title … and now she has an unexpected shot at her biggest career win. It seems inevitable that history will be created in Brisbane this season with apprentice Lang (57 wins) and Angela Jones (50 wins) leading the city title race ahead of James Orman (45) who is now riding in Hong Kong. Next in the race are Andrew Mallyon and Bailey Wheeler, both with 42 wins. Lang, who is apprenticed to champion trainer Tony Gollan, has enjoyed a breakthrough season and has won a pair of Listed races but never a Group race. She now gets an unforeseen chance to scoop her biggest career win when riding Boomtown Boss for Gollan in the rescheduled $300,000 Group 3 Fred Best Classic at Doomben on Wednesday. • PUNT LIKE A PRO: Become a Racenet iQ member and get expert tips – with fully transparent return on investment statistics – from Racenet's team of professional punters at our Pro Tips section. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Blake Shinn had originally been booked to ride Boomtown Boss in the Fred Best before a foot injury last week ruled him out of the winter carnival. With Lang suspended, Ryan Maloney had been slated to step in to ride Boomtown Boss in the Fred Best at Eagle Farm last Saturday. But the race, which offers the winner a golden ticket into the Group 1 Stradbroke Handicap, was been rescheduled to Doomben on Wednesday after the it was among a cluster of races postponed when jockeys opted to stop riding at Eagle Farm last Saturday due to poor visibility. It means Lang can return from suspension and take the prized mount. Jockey Emily Lang (left) with Brisbane Racing Club Ambassador, Shayna Jack, at the Queensland winter carnival launch in April. Picture: Josh Woning • 'It jeopardises the Stradbroke': Benedetta back-up gamble The duo has previously enjoyed success together including claiming the Listed Daybreak Lover. 'Emily and I are a while away from focusing on riding premierships for her, we will worry about that in July,' Gollan said. 'At the moment, this ride in the Fred Best is a good reward for her. 'Blake was on and Emily was suspended but it's great for her now to put back on the horse in a good race. 'Whether it can springboard her into something else the following weekend or later in the carnival, who knows. 'Whatever the result, I am really happy to have Emily riding this horse in this race, that is for sure.' • 'You'll see the best of her Saturday': Vandyke's warning to Oaks rivals This time last week, Boomtown Boss was a $13 chance to win the Fred Best. But with the race rescheduled and now at Doomben instead of Eagle Farm, he is a $23 chance in latest betting. 'For me, personally, I would prefer this race to be at Eagle Farm rather than Doomben,' Gollan conceded. 'I think this horse would be better at Eagle Farm with the bigger track and more room. 'The race presents a lot differently around Doomben and there's not as much room for error. 'He can have an error or two in the way he races, because he's not a finished product yet. But he's definitely up to the grade.' • Potential to produce something very special': Winx's next Hot date confirmed Originally published as Unexpected chance for Brisbane premiership frontrunner Emily Lang to score biggest career win in Group 2 Fred Best Classic at Doomben
