The news that RV have purchased a huge tract of land out near Tullamarine Airport makes the long rumoured sale of the Sandown racecourse an absolute certainty. RV are denying it at the moment, but that’s a cheque that you can take to the bank and cash right now, with confidence. It’s a good thing too. […]
Pay your stallion levy or else ….
