He will meticulously work his way through the catalogue and inspections at the Karaka sales this year – just like he has in previous years.

Rutten will have a dual-pronged attack on the Karaka Millions 2YO with second favourite Too Sweet (NZ) (Satono Aladdin) and roughie In The…

It’s going to be a fine balancing act for the respected punter as he prepares to not only back winners, but cheer home the one he owns as well. “I’ve got a horse in…
