SALE TOPPER AT LAST.

After threatening to do so for a while now, SALE TOPPER showed what he could do if put it all together and things went his way. The pint sized three year old has been very unlucky on a couple of occasions in his racing career but it sure was nice to see him put it all together at Northam last Thursday. SALE TOPPER, so named because of the huge price he commanded at the 2006 Perth yearling sale......I think it was $1000......... has become a bit of a stable favourite because of his size and his guts apart from his will to compete.

The win was a great thrill for myself and my co-owner Gary Lillyeman, however it certainly was worth the wait. Unfortunately, SALE TOPPER pulled up with a bit of soreness in one fore leg so will now have to have another spell. He will be out for most of the winter and hopefully he can make a successful comeback later in the year.
