Slow Moving Cattle to Lightning Fast Thoroughbreds in SA Racing History
Reid built a South Australia racing dynasty starting with Pedlinga and Beoyoolie stock, training at Edwardsstown and Morphettville. His greatest praise goes to Denaere, a horse that won two City Handicaps and a Goodwood Handicap, amid a career spanning Glenelg to Morphettville training HQ.
