Zac Spain says he is raring to go ahead of his return to the saddle at Geelong on Sunday after spending the past month on the sidelines.
The 24-year-old was outed after failing a breath test on the middle day of the Warrnambool May Racing Carnival. It s been a long month, but you live and learn, Spain admitted. It was a clip back to reality. The first person I called was Mick Price, who just said chin up and keep working hard and learn from it.
