Quinn elated over horse’s race into record books
Halmahera, part-owned by Quinn, raced into the history books of all-time greats by becoming the first horse to win the Portland Handicap three times. He was running at odds of 11-1. The race is a feature event on the opening day of the Doncaster St Leger festival.
The winner came with a terrific late burst to get up in the dying strides and land the tote sport-sponsored sprint by a head from Texas Gold.
