Joe Caster carries top weight to victory
Friday, November 28, 2008
JOE CASTER recorded his third win of the year at Great Leighs last night. James Eustace feared the handicapper had got hold of him but the horse must have improved to win as he did yesterday. He has been a model of consistency, only finishing out of the first 3 once in 7 starts. He may run again next Friday in a similar contest at Lingfield where he will have to carry a 6 pound penalty.It is a real fairytale start as a breeder for Gillian Walker who still owns him too. It is the only horse she has bred and put into training and he is giving her an enormous amount of enjoyment.
