THE Harrovian has created history by becoming the first horse to secure a TAB Queensland Northern Crowns Series bonus with victory in the FNQ Amateurs Cup in Cairns on Saturday.
Jumping as an odds-on favourite, the Stephen Massingham-trained gelding pocketed $87,000 for the win and a further $200,000 bonus after prevailing in the Townsville Cup and the Cairns Cup earlier in the campaign. Across the three meetings, the 6YO gelding - ridden by veteran Australian Racing Hall of Fame jockey Robert Thompson - has secured more than $460,000 for his connections while re-writing history in the process. First introduced last year, the Northern Crowns Series offers bonuses to any horse that can secure three of the five staying or sprinting races held across Rockhampton, Mackay, Townsville, Cairns and FNQ Amateurs.
