Meet Bob Clegg.

This week's guest VRC Member Tipster.

How long have you been a member of the VRC?

I have been a member of the Victoria Racing Club since 1994.

What, or who got you into horseracing?

My father-in-law, as he was born on the day Phar Lap won the Melbourne Cup.

Have you had a memorable win on a horse that you can share with us? 

Yes, it was on a horse called Brass Farthing in the early 1980's.I think it was at Sandown racecourse in the pouring rain.  The horse was paying 500-1.  An omen bet as my mother-in-law's maiden name was Farthing. A great win.   

Who would you say is your favourite racehorse over the years? 

In Australia, it would be Black Caviar.  Overseas, it would be Secretariat

Do you have a jockey/trainer that you always follow on a race day? 

The jockey would be Jamie Kah, with T&C McEvoy the trainer. 

Will you be on track this Saturday at Flemington? 

Yes, I will be at Flemington on Saturday and participating in the members Punter's Club.
