Three Strands was a 'shoe-in' for punters

"Three Strands ran them shoeless!" joked Corne Spies after seeing this photo taken by Candiese Lenferna near the finish of Race 8 at Scottsville on Sunday, 19 November.


It shows a shoe coming off the second-placed runner, Giver's Grace, and it may or may not have played a role in her defeat to our runner. It was a close finish though, Three Strands finished hard and fast. There was just a nose in it at the line, and if this was a bit of luck, then it was high time we got some for a change!
