Bronzegate had his first Australian win since being transferred from NZ, with a dominant performance at Ipswich today.

Ridden by […]

Bronzegate went up in grade after his demolition job at Ipswich, and did it professionally with a strong performance over 2200m at Sunshine Coast. With Steph Lacy aboard, the chestnut gelding settled well on the rail, and once he got off the rail before the turn, it was just a matter of getting past the leader […]
