Who is Herman Brown?

Was waiting for that.......champion South African trainer, lovely fella, told me a story over morning tea regarding a bet he had with Sir Pat, All Blacks v Bokke..........Bokke won, Sir Pat welched, Herman only wanted a $100 bet but Hogan being Hogan got him to up the anti to a grand,.....considering Herman was buying heaps of Zabeels at the time to say he was pissed is understating it. Mustn't speak ill of the dead tho, he did take NZ to the stratosphere breeding wise.

Pretty average bringing this up when he has just died. Only one side of a story here

Herman is the least likely fella to bullshit, Mrs Bloggs was privy to that conversation, after that I thought nil of PH, it showed a side that the press and the sycophants wont go near.

He was a battler until he and his brother bought Sir Tristram and then on his own when the rewards flowed.

Quietly he was generous -take this example- a lady who trained for me shared in a yearling that failed to sell -he said to her give me a dollar and the yearling is yours.

I also admired that he outlined the true circumstances of his birth and parentage in the published   book

All involved in the breeding of horses are likely to suffer from rumours and insinuations -it goes with the business.

It wasn't rumour or insinuation Nod, I was there, so was my missus, the bloke obviously had another side to him.

What you are doing is straight defamation....that's why you never published this tale when Hogan was alive.💩

Dickhead, Herman is alive and well, defamation is when you can't prove what you said/did, I'm damn sure Herman would stand by what he said......arrivederci.
