Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
On Sunday morning in an article about the Bondi we told you that Keefy, the runner up in Peter V’Landys mad million dollar race for 3-year-olds, had run second the start before in a Class 3 at Caloundra to a horse named Way Beyond. I neglected to mention that I knew a bit about that […]
