Howard Atkinson Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 I was at my local Avondale races yesterday, and was interested to see a starter named 'Teak' in a maiden sprint. My mind went roaming back to a very good steeplechaser of the '70s also named 'Teak'. Central Districts galloper I seem to recall ...won a Grand National Steeplechase from memory. Yesterday's 'Teak' ran 2nd @ $6.70 a place. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
