Steve O'Dea has enjoyed a successful winter campaign, headlined by Scallopini's heart-stopping Hinkler Handicap win.
We caught up with Steve to recap his month, his association with star hoop Steph Thornton, and the behind-the-scenes work from his team that has contributed to his success.
Steve also gives us the run-down on his two fancied runners at Saturday's Doomben meet in Jami Lady and Reckless Choice.
