Mark’s Mail – 12 July, 2019

Bula from Fiji!
The family and I are enjoying an awesome holiday in Fiji this week.
Its been a fantastic week which was of course headlined by Ocean Park hitting the 100 winners mark. He’s at a really exciting stage in his career and it’s extremely encouraging that over half of his winners have been high-quality Australian winners that look to have plenty more instore come the new season.
I’m back on deck next week and am looking forward to gearing up for the season ahead!
Have a great weekend everyone.
Cheers,
Mark
