James Orman rode a treble in his Dubai debut at Jebel Ali on Saturday. He did it the hard way too, with none of them starting favorite. You would have made a nice profit if you’d followed the gun QLD hoop’s mounts. His winners prices were $11.00, $5.00 and $4.00. Orman’s taking the family for […]

The winner of the race ran 1.53.2. Mossdale […]
