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...

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 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
