Did our Border Mail photographers snap a picture of you that year? Take a look and find out!
In 2011, Glen Boss enhanced his reputation as the hottest jockey in the country at the time when he combined with Paddy O’Reilly to “rein” supreme over the strongest line-up ever to contest an Albury Gold Cup.
The Robert Smerdon trained gelding upstaged a star-studded field littered with group-class performers including the Lee Freedman-trained duo of Fanjura and Speed Gifted, Extra Zero, Playwright, C’est La Guerre and Kiwi raider Ginga Dude.
Boss flew into Albury to partner the gelding less than an hour before the feature event then left to ride at last night’s meeting at Moonee Valley.
