THE ‘OLD TEAM’ SET TO BE REUNITED ON QR BOARD
CONTROVERSY has ridden shotgun with NEVILLE STEWART for much of his tenure as chairman of the Toowoomba Turf Club and that looks set to continue when he pursues a seat on the Board of Queensland Racing.
The timing of his recent resignation after 21 years at the helm of the TTC has even raised questions over his eligibility for the Board position but he and his long-time friend, QR chairman, Bob Bentley, have been quick to dismiss those suggestions.
TESTING TIME FOR THOSE WHO FOLLOW THE CIRCUIT
THE Queensland Winter Carnival has come and gone for another year and had it not been for Group 1 success stories, APACHE CAT and BLACK PIRANHA, the majority of punters would have been fly-blown.
The bookies will no doubt disagree but the carnival was another benefit for the satchel-swingers with upsets almost every week from the Gold Coast pipe-opener in early May to the Sunshine Coast marathon in late June.
