🤩Our superstar 🐴REPUBLICAN PARTY will return home this week after two outstanding runs in Melbourne over the last two weeks.

🥳His thrilling Hunter Cup run saw him charging home from deep on the pegs to a head and half-neck behind the two best pacers in this part of the world in track record time - which we believe was a win in itself!

“He’s come a long way in the past six months or so and we’ll focus on getting him primed for the Race by Betcha now.” - Cran Dalgety (co-trainer)
