Thoroughbred racing is riding a wave again after a mega-deal with an international company and the announcement of huge stakes increases in the coming years.
Consistent performer Perfect Scenario made it back-to-back victories in the feature event at Wingatui on Saturday when he captured his second group 3 White Robe Lodge weight-for-age.
It was a big day for the Otago Racing Club at Wingatui today where the Dunedin guineas, the Dunedin Gold Cup and the White Robe Lodge Stakes (group 3) were all run, worth a combined total $350,000.
On the day after the sale of Forbury Park was announced, two of the track’s biggest achievers were in the winner’s circle much further south at Ascot Park.
