Elite Tiger Roars Again

Jun 2, 2016

Elite Tiger has turned into a handy little horse!

Yesterday at Ballarat he went into his race a 20/1 shot against the favourite who only beat him by a bob of the head the start prior. We don't think that will happen again.

Dan waited for a more suitable surface at Ballarat, and with it being a BM78 race, it meant he got in very well at the weights.  Add the claim of Jess Payne, who has been riding extremely well, and there's your result.

The plan from the wide gate, wasn't to get so far back, but he is now such a versatile horse and Jess made the right choice.

 A big thanks too to Steve Arnold who has given Dan some excellent, experienced feedback of late with several of our horses – only to hand the reigns over for weight reasons.

Elite Tiger now has four wins on the board and Dan may look at a race in the city for his next start.

Congratulations to his terrific group of owners from the Kolora Noorat Power!
