Stable heart-throb ReturnoftheKing or “Felix” to his closer fans and connections, made his well awaited inaugural break-through at Kembla Grange on Saturday with a toe to toe victory over odds on favourite Sir Dannock.
The three-year-old gelding by Desert King out of Blue Music put in a brave effort over the closing 300m to hold victory in the final stride by a nose.
The win triggered a wave of celebrations for all 30 elated syndicate shareholders who have all come to know and love this little Aussie Battler.
