Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The trainer at the centre of this snowstorm is Phil Bobic, an upstanding young form equestrian champion turned highly respected pre-training expert and hobby racehorse trainer out on the Downs.

The old Tramway workshop at Randwick, which the race is named after Chris Waller mare Olentia is the red hot $2.25 favourite to win the Tramway at Rosehill on Saturday, but it’s a totally crazy price, and as good was she is, I very much doubt that Waller’s little star girl can knock off the […]
