Profile
Like last year's Hobart winner, Indian Pacific, Highland Fling is another of the very successful Farr 40 designs, so she certainly has the right pedigree. Owner Irvine Laidlaw raced for Hong Kong in the 1983 Southern Cross. This time he is representing Britain. Certainly a good prospect for the Hobart.
Member of the U.K.'s Southern Cross Cup team.
