Jockey Callan Murray came to say goodbye this week to his friends and colleagues at Randjesfontein, where he worked on and off for our stable and others for the last five years. They incuded assistant trainer Vengi Masawi (photo).

Callan’s off to Australia, as we know, and he’ll be missing us, and vice versa. But career moves are important for a young jockey and we’ll be following his exploits with interest.
