    Mister Douglas - a horse from the last millenium

    15yo Mister Douglas is going around for start number 284 at Warragul on Monday

    Being born in 1999 he has been around as long as
    - the Euro
    - The Sopranos TV show
    - the last North Melbourne premiership
    - watermarks on our TV screen (introduced by bloody Ch.7)
    - the last time Kev backed one of his longshots

    And the end of footy at Waverley.

    Will get a nice action shot of him on Monday. He goes well at Warragul so he may just win!

    Mister Douglas is another that has given his owners a lot of thrills over his long career, He's never been a world beater but has finished in the prizemoney 180 times including 33 wins and has more than payed his own way.

    The moment he won (and I backed the second horse!) I started writing this article, Kev, and was finished about quarter to 1 in the morning. Stories like this are what got me into the trots in the first place.

    Trainer Joanne was absolutely stoked, and rightly so. What a wonderful racehorse. She deserves enormous credit for how she's looked after him and kept him racing. Sound as a bell.
