News On Gordon Elliott


Gordon Elliott is heading towards the remarkable score of 50 winners at Perth, but he had to settle for just one on an afternoon when he saddled a strong team at the track.

The County Meath-based handler, who notched two trebles on his last visit, had to suffer three second places in the first three races.

Definite All Star lost a duel with Baaher on the run-in, Right Or Wrong was no match for the odds-on Billie Magern, and Nedzer's Return was beaten in a photo-finish by Bucephalus. Elliott finally got on the scoresheet with Shopfrontspecialst in the Queen Tribute Band July 27th Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle.
