SEA COWS BAY, Tortola, VI - Moonlight Bandit had horse racing fans jumping for joy as it trotted to victory in the feature race of the Boxing Day Races, held at Ellis Thomas Downs on Sunday, December 27, 2020.
“I tell them I’m going to beat them this time,” says Dion Stevens, owner of the champion horse.
He said he believes the ongoing pandemic assisted his horse in winning.
He explained, “The horse itself is different. Through the pandemic, he got a good rest, and I am dealing with him different myself.”
Moonlight Bandit raced against One Way To Fame from Mission House Racing Stables in the third race, dubbed, The Hon. Julian Fraser Classic.
