36 wins
Raced: 1980s
The horse that put trainer Mick Mair on the map when he moved to Queensland in the mid-1980s. "The Burglar" was a good performer in the south winning a race at country Braidwood by 16 lengths among his nine southern wins. But he really found his feet in Queensland winning another 25 races including the Ipswich Cup, BTC Lord Mayor’s Cup, Labor Day Cup, and Caloundra City Cup. But there is no doubt his best win was in the 1988 Lord Mayor’s Cup when he beat the champion Vo Rogue. "The Burglar" was later a real character around Caloundra and would let himself out of his stall to go visiting neighbours.
