More from The Game
Turf and Ruler go through some of their favourite racing tales - some of which stem from Ruler's most recent book, Chance.
Andrew Bobbin was a professional footballer who transitioned to a life behind the camera.
Kevin Cain wasn't born on a racetrack but he was there in his infancy and perhaps that's the reason why he, at some point, held a jockey, training and bookmaking licence.
In the fascinating conclusion to the Steve Wood story, the former jockey details how he used a familiar scheme once in possession of a training licence, before reforming and taking up a role as a steward in Queensland.
Steve Wood was roped into a life he never intended to lead and it took many years to work his way out.
