John Leek with Rare Chief

One of the top hurdle trainers John Leek later to become a handy Horse trainer. Rare Chief wasn’t it a star over the jumps. Mad North Melbourne man Johnny and reasonably wild, in his younger days. Caught up with him a few years ago at a Grand Final lunch he was one of the guest speakers. Good bloke. Below is a story I wrote about he John got started in Greyhounds.
