Ep. 64 | The (Group One winning!) Strapper.

Eliza Callaghan served in the Royal Australian Navy, and took her holidays to coincide with country race meetings. From the middle of the ocean to remote Queensland, because she loves racing.

Growing up helping her Pop, Ilfracombe trainer Boy Forster, Eliza knew from a young age she wanted to be involved in the racing industry, and started learning the race day ropes early.

Owning and strapping is where Eliza has found her niche, with New York World currently racing in her colours at country tracks.

And... Eliza is also the only** country strapper to have also strapped a Group One winner!

**not fact checked :)

Eliza lead Apache Chase for his Kingsford Smith Cup win in 2022 for Aunty and trainer Desleigh Forster.
