A truly monumental gamble landed at Lingfield today in the shape of Brabazon.
Unraced since June 2008 and having never won a race in eighteen previous starts the beast was available at 50’s early, was gambled down to 11-4 favourite and duly obliged.
To add to the fairytale feel of our story the horse was ridden by a young chap called Freddie Mitchell landing his debut win on his very first run under rules. The youngster picked up the ride as planned pilot Graham Watters was reportedly held up by the bad weather conditions and arrived five minutes too late to get the leg up.
Christmas has come early for some people!
