it would have been a great drive home up the M1. Hey Dean would be happy, you got him $5,000 prizemoney & no penalty!
The cracks in my face all just got a bit wider Steve!! ( as Rich says, " a split melon" )...hadn't thought about until you mentioned it but that was the first time I've been in the bike in under 1:55!

Dean is a bloody nice young bloke Steve, told me about the horse, made sure the horse would get looked after as well as his owners and said "have fun", great young trainer and driver and I really hope his fortunes continue to grow, he is the right sort of person in my opinion, had the horse as right as anyone can for a first up as well!
There were plenty coming to see if the lead was available!.......the horse did amazing!.....it's not easy to stop and go 3 or 4 times in a race, and still win!
It's funny how things play out! You had not even met him before today!
You'll sleep well tonight, with a grin on your face!
Danno, just watched replay I think you might be able to consider a job as a free lance driver. Hope it'a a sign of more wins to come.
Well done Dan i was there but couldnt stayfor the race, you did well its hard to lead and win at the track and you did both.My bloke was there too but a horse in ours beat its pevious best by four seconds ! went like an 11 year old Porsche
I checked out the horses previous start, it was in the 1-1, got held up for awhile down the back straight, went a bit wider turning for home, did not have a lot of open running space, and then the race was over.....It did have some previous good trial form in QLD & NSW, but that was while ago! jumped straight to the front yesterday, and kept improving it's position!
