Default Took the words right out of my mouth

What an awesome effort! It paid $64 on qld tote, and the bookies had it at 101.

Paul actually was slammed into the barriers when the horse jumped which knocked about the metal plates in his arm (from a previous fall in Rockhampton) and left his elbow very bruised and swollen. He reports saying he was glad the horse didn't need to much riding out, cause all he could use was his stick due to his arm in pain!!! What an effort! He was then taken to hospital for x-rays etc.
