To count down the 12 days before Christmas,
Mr. Will Wong (@mrwillw) will present some of his favourite photos from the 2017 thoroughbred season.
Today: Johnny Bear turfs the competition.
“While it took expensive 2012 Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society Yearling Sale graduate Johnny Bear a few years to find his best form, on this 5th day of Christmas we remember his hard-earned score in the Grade 1 Northern Dancer Stakes. The Ashlee Brnjas trainee, owned by Colebrook Farm and Bear Stables, flew that Canadian flag proud, defeating a talented field which included European invaders.” – Mr. Will Wong
