Record Breaking Return for Sebring Filly

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday October 31

Burdened with 60kg, she was ridden forward by Tim Clark and scored a length win in the 1100 metre Benchmark 64 event setting a new record for the Kensington track.

Whiskey Shooter will target the rich Brisbane Summer Carnival with a return to the Gold Coast for Magic Millions day her main target.
