And his drive in the last at Addington tonight was brilliant….horse settled 2nd when leader let Dunn go to lead. Now usually, this would be the end of the story, Dunn would slow the pace down to a walk, sprint home to win while others had no chance… Not tonight, Wilson rushed around to take lead and put pedal down….held on to win by a head, well done. I do get a bit sick of drivers sitting back letting Orange, Dunn & co dictate, so good to see this race 👍 -
Good horse Scotch Mist, was by balios out of high glow, won a couple of races at avondale back in the day. -
Yes back in the day quite a few coast trainers, also support from the odd Nelson and marlborough trainer, and of course canterbury, the late Ray Harris always patronized the coast well will large numbers, Brutus, Scotch Mist, Wordly Miss, to name a few better ones, Jim Lalor(Charlies Pal) another who came to the coast, Shorty Healy from Nelson, and of course the Parsons, who still continue to train, as you point out the racing these days totally reliant on the Myers stable, also the Canterbury connection, don't think currently any thoroughbreds trained there, used to be the Kennedys, the Doolans, not sure if the Hamptons have any these days, times certainly have changed even the kumara track, not sure for the better, as the abandonments since the track upgrade have been a few.Westport jockey club ceased racing in 1996, times certainly changed.

Trainers Robert Wellwood and Roger James will be out to continue their stranglehold on the Karaka Millions 3YO at Ellerslie on Saturday. The partners have trained the past two winners of the race, with Prowess (NZ) (Proisir) saluting in 2023 and Orchestral (NZ) (Savabeel) blowing rivals away in the 2024 edition. This year, they saddle up undefeated gelding Dealt With (NZ) (Ace High) in the rich feature. The son of Ace High has made an immediate impression, winning the first two starts of his career, but faces his biggest test to date in Saturday’s NZ$1.5 million race. Dealt With heads into the race on the back of a six-day turnaround and whether he handles it is the major cloud over his head, Wellwood said. “We are pretty proud to have won the race the last two years with horses we have purchased. We only have 45 in work, we only buy small numbers here,” Wellwood said. “To be able to try and retain our crown (is a thrill). We’ve had to be patient with him for one reason or another. He’s unbeaten, he’s had two runs, he shows a lot of ability. “He is backing up six days after his last run which, obviously, ideally you’d have a little bit longer.” While Dealt With has the same star quality as Prowess and Orchestral, Wellwood believes he’s a slightly different profile to them. “They had a little bit more experience under their belt. They were probably horses we thought would get 2000m post that,” he said. “He’s more a sprinter/miler type rather than carrying on to a 2000-metre race, a Derby. Hopefully if we can tick off this one, we will go to The Kiwi and win the two richest races in New Zealand.” Meanwhile, Orchestral will also contest the 1600-metre Aotearoa Classic, where she is a $2.45 favourite. The dual Group 1 winner was most recently seen on Australian shores during the spring, where she finished sixth in the Toorak Handicap and last in the Empire Rose Stakes. “The key to her is being up to a mile and back to set weights,” Wellwood said. “She’s had a good break, come back in lovely order. Her work on Tuesday morning was very good. “We see no reason why she can’t find her form of old.” View the full article
