Fab’s Cowboy has brought up win No. 52 surpassing Walk Cool’s modern day race record at start number 150 at Mount Isa Race Club on Saturday.
Fab’s Cowboy who started his racing career in November 2015 has surpassed Walk Cool’s modern day race record of 51 wins in modern day race records.
The Bevan Johnson trained galloper continues to get better with age having won three of his past for starts to claim the record with the 12yo unlikely to be done just yet with four and a half months left before he will be forced into retirement when the new Australian racing season starts on August 1.
He was born in Julia Creek, broken in at Longreach by Paul, he then headed back to Julia Creek to be ridden before eventually going into work for the first time at Miles with the Johnson stable, with a stop in Longreach on the way.
Fab’s Cowboy is regarded as the iron horse for all of regional Queensland.
