Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Does anyone really believe that J-Mac was trying on the favorite Samarelle in the 4th at Warwick Farm today? If so I suggest that you book yourself in for a psychological test. The winner was backed from near double figures into $3.70. It is easy to see why. This was a boatie. A sit and […]
