A Fine Christmas

Dec 26, 2019

There was still time to do your last minute Christmas Shopping, with extra dollars, when Fine Rhythm broke his maiden status at Werribee on Tuesday.

This fellow had placed on several occasions previously but has also encountered some issues so it was very rewarding for everyone involved to get this big fellow over the line.

He is bred and raced by Frank and Lesley Monish who care for their horses like precious gems and give them every opportunity to deliver their best, so we are always thrilled when they get a winner.

It was a well timed ride by our apprentice Will Price, who took over the reins from his father Simon. Enjoy the bragging rights Will.

Let’s hope this fellow continues to work through the grades for the Monish Family!

Merry Christmas everyone!
