Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
You wouldn’t have wanted to be a trot punter chasing a cheap multi with either or both of Grant Dixon’s odds on shots in it at Albion Park on Tuesday. Fredidrivsamercury was the first one. It started at $1.28. Anyone who took it was mad, for Fredi was a 3yo taking on older horses, and […]
