TheHorseman Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 He had some bloody good horses in his day, CC my fav horse. Remember when he won the NZ Cup, I was up the top of the then Public stand and Brian O'meara watched the race from up there too. Presented his horses beautifully too. 2 1 Quote

Er, how can one 'namedrop' someone who's already the subject of the thread? You'll have to get up earlier than that Whip old son. And for those professing to be interested, I can confirm, very sadly, that none of the horses I had with BOM was Cullen. Ability-wise, not even when all put together...😪 Quote

Starship started fav in most of his clashes with Tuapeka Knight, but came off second best. I remember Ian Cameron closing the gap to the line one day with the old hub rail, still won in the end.
