Metro win for Roxy and Greg

Jan 23, 2021

It was a very exciting and proud moment for our team and owner Greg Galt when Horse For Higher won at Moonee Valley last night.

“Roxy” was bred by Greg, who did a lot of home work when choosing Globetrotter for his mare Nitrox, so we were over the moon to deliver Greg a city win with the big girl!

Ridden perfectly from the wide gate by our apprentice Will Price, the win gave master and apprentice their first metro win together.

A terrific job from our team and a fantastic post race interview from Jaylah!

We sincerely hope we can deliver our owners more wins like this.
