Tony Soal's name jogs my memory. He had an exceptional looking horse back in the day but I can't remember its name.

I doubt anyone would remember as it was only a C5 or 6 horse. 

I think...

Sounds like he found his true calling. 

[Brodie]

Pretty sure Wayne Ross was involved in selling cars before he went out training horses.

A few interesting tales that went around then.

Correct,I believe Wayne Ross was on fair go or maybe just the news being unscrupulous 

Tony Soal was an ok trainer who done his time with Patrick Oreilly Junior.

Tony is now a freezing worker.Dale Forbes was another trainer a few years back was Tony's son in law

Wayne Higgs copped a suspension for one of the most blatant pull-up jobs ever witnessed at Manawatu one night. 

His horse Man With The Money would have won by a wide margin if he let it go but he had to give it the biggest stranglehold on it you have ever seen 50m from the post to stop it winning.

Video is a good watch although a bit grainy. Those were the days.
