Thanks for that. It's so before my memory period. I remember being dragged down there as a kid because some top horse was racing. But all I was interested in was the hot dog stand, and races up and down the steps . I was the problem child, so I probably was there for some of those horses.

Gammalite Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 7 hours ago, Ludwig said: Best horse you can recall doing the rounds of Hutt Park A Funny Story for you Ludwig, in late Nov 1983 , a market gardener from Auckland took his gelding to Hutt Park for a BIG punt. It didn't come off . Down the track He finished much to the disappointment of all his supporters in Auckland inc myself. Thought the fields at Hutt Park would be weak , and he would win easily. But not to be....... Brian returned to Alexandra Park ,Auckland and the gelding blew them away by 3 lengths at his second race start. Roy Purdon and co proving No match for this now promising horse (that couldn't win at Hutt Park) Brian Notman then sold him for $40k to the aussies in the west. VILLAGE KID then rattled off near 100 wins and over $2,000,000. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
