Queensland Derby winner kicks off three-start campaign

Roger James is training Queensland Derby winner Pinarello. Pinarllo arrived in Australia on Sunday and will run in Saturday's Shannon Stakes at Rosehill. James won the same race 12 years ago with Firebolt. Sam Clipperton will mount Pinarallo in the 1500m race. James and Robert Wellwood are training Pinarillo with a Kiwi horse. They are hoping to bring more Kiwis to Sydney in future. The number of Kiwians training horses in Sydney has declined in recent years.

Queensland Derby winner kicks off three-start campaign. He hopes to have a couple of good horses going to Melbourne later on for the carnival and then back here in the autumn.

Racing legends like Phar Lap, Kingston Town and Octagonal deserve due recognition

Racing often loses its way when it comes to acknowledging and remembering champions of yesteryear. Unlike other sports that revere their best and boast extensive data bases for study and comparison, the thoroughbred industry does not have a definitive source to maintain and update race records of the equine superstars. On a similar theme, it is…

As Aft Cabin cleared out…
