Where do you start? The horse – or horses? Two of them, epic rivals, perennials.
The race? Remarkable; greybeard heroes flog the upstarts, all horses home safe. Phew.
The trainer? “The ultimate horseman,” according to his father.
The jockey? He wasn’t Mr Kah, not today.
The event? Last year
Warrnambool was empty. Today, half of Victoria appeared to have marched up that hill to watch legends
Gold Medals and
Grand Annual Steeplechases ever run.
