Lukes Mistake may have been an unintentional purchase back in 2021 at the Melbourne Yearling Sales, when Luke Tabbakh clicked on his mouse twice accidentally, resulting in a $10,000 bid securing him what he described as the smallest horse in the auction. But that purchase has now gone on to claim his third race with a win in the opener at Northam on Saturday night.

Friday night’s meeting at Northam on July 14 was one of two meetings in WA for the night, and with seven races on the card, driving honours on the night went the way of Aldo Cortopassi, who drove a race-to-race double.
