AMONG all the celebrations which went into the night, Alice Springs trainer Terry Gillett wanted to make something clear after That’s Justified stormed home on the straight to win the $50,000 Metric Mile at Fannie Bay.
“We bought That’s Justified at the yearling sales in Alice Springs, and this shows how important these sales are,” he said.
“SavatoXL was also bought from those sales, and he’s a Group 1-winning horse.
“There’s a really good role call of Territory horses who have gone on to big things after being purchased from those sales.”
