Remember the story we told you on Sunday about the hottest race in the world at the Menangle trots the night before, on the opening night of ID21? The race the Stewards convened an inquiry into that we assured you would end up nowhere? This one. https://peterprofit.com/2021/11/28/the-hottest-race-in-the-whole-wide-world/ Well gee, we were right. Nothing can spoil […]
