Massie Lodge born and bred, Jimmy (aka Private James) gets a start this weekend at Innisfail with jockey Jason Stopps aboard for the ride.Over 1200m and drawn out to the carpark, young Jimbo will hopefully do us all proud once again. I am hoping so as I have a few dollars to put on him!
I did ask his trainer, Brad Furber what is happening with the barrier draws... he just laughed!
He says that Jimbo is jumping out of his skin and when he takes him for work, can hardly keep him quiet. "He just wants to get going" - Brad commented this morning on the phone. I had to laugh.
Other owners, Mark & Karen Fuccilli will be there to see him tomorrow.
Oh well, we'll keep our fingers crossed for tomorrow!
