Happy Sunrise Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Going through the garage and saw my favourites and thought I should I put one up on the wall somewhere. Does anybody else have this series? I can't even remember how I got mine but remember going to some random framing place to either pick them up or get them framed. Wonder what would happen if they repeated this again. Lazarus, Adore Me.... Raphoe? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brodie Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Had the set as well Happy! Wife wanted rid of them about 10 years ago and sold them for next to nothing at a garage sale. Can probably afford to buy the set back but don’t think she would allow me to hang them anywhere but the garage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He time trialed in 1.57.8 in the late 40's which I think may have been not far outside the world record at the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 1 hour ago, Happy Sunrise said: My personal favourite is Highland Fling. My dad's too. He always liked to tell the story of how, on coming up from Southland for the 1947 Cup, he proceeded to 'invest' the equivalent of a month's wages on HF's nose. The (fortunately temporary) sick feeling he experienced when the horse galloped hopelessly at the start, leaving him wondering how he was going to get back to Winton, convinced him to only be a small punter ever after. Or so he said... However, he also said, much later in life, that although he'd for a long time been certain that Highland Fling was the best pacer he'd ever seen, he eventually became convinced that Cardigan Bay was better. A 'more professional' horse was how he described the latter. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
