Eclair Awesome CHARGES home to win the third at Doomben for @JackBruceRacing with @BenThompson2102 on board! 🔥

Racing fans let this sink in … Leap To Fame has raced 84 times and won 65 of them. He’s finished second 14 times. So, in 84 starts he run worse than second just 5 times - 3 x 3rd and 2 x 4th. Across five years, he’s never had an off night.

R.I.P Aidan 🤍💫 You were the very best of us. Aidan rescued a 14 year old boy from being robbed & attacked from a gang of youths at Mernda Station & was murdered. Aidan is a Hero. He sacrificed his life to save another. My thoughts are with the Becker family. Aussies should not have to sacrifice our lives because of Government failures. These savages were known to Police & Labor have let this imported violent youth crisis get out of control. Enough is enough 😡

SALE DAY SNIPPET: Then-15YO Max Skillecorn went viral last year when he pinhooked a horse through #InglisPremier, which sold for $40k. This year, Max is back to try his luck again. He bought a weanling colt for $5k at #InglisGreatSouthern and offered him for sale at Oaklands today. The result? Something simply extraordinary and something you genuinely must watch!

Australia beats New Zealand! 🦘 Sixteen years after SISTER HAVANA won the Karaka Million 2YO for Liam Birchley, the Queensland trainer takes the race for the third time with DREAM ROCA 🇦🇺 It's a first NZ win for @BenThompson2102! 💪

A track record. A statement. The champ isn’t done with yet. Leap To Fame romps home in the @Bdtc150 Cup. Sets up a mouthwatering next three weeks of racing in Victoria. @TheTrotsComAu @RaceQLD @TheCreekAlbion

A couple of handy campaigners at the Deagon trials this morning … Zarastro 🖤💛 Antino 🩷💙🖤 Trainer Tony Gollan says ✅📈

For too long, politicians have been putting Australians last. I can’t understand why these people get into politics in the first place to do anything other than help Australia. One Nation is the only party that can be trusted to be proud of how successful our country can be.

A touching tribute from @Kiaarn and @walkerb83 for apprentice jockey Bronte Simpson following her tragic passing overnight 💔🕊️
