Gammalite Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 The $450,000 WA Cup about to go off in the wild west, and the Locarno/ Camelot man Robin Butt is going in strong as a part owner. (MINSTREL and HIMSELF tonight) There's also a J R Butt in the ownership group (and also the breeding party of HIMSELF) so was wondering is that Robin's wife maybe ? does someone know? The Bond and Hall stables once again with a majority of the field in these sort of wild west races. The Number 1 horse DIEGO , driven by Gary Hall jnr , is owned by it's breeders S A and S B Brown (perhaps some more kiwi owners?) Diego and Minstrel drawn to give the race a shake from the inside draws anyway. Best Of Luck to Robin !!!! for a Camelot nz cup- like win lol. 1 13113 DIEGO NZ Gary Hall Snr Gary Hall Jnr L15 (H$180877.50) FR1 $4.50 2 6s432 MINSTREL NZ G F J Bond, S A Bond Ryan Warwick L15 (H$180851.74) FR2 $6.50 3 22547 JUMPINGJACKMAC NZ Gary Hall Snr Stuart McDonald L15 (H$118870.11) FR3 $9.00 4 11388 MAGNIFICENT STORM NZ Ray Williams Aldo Cortopassi L15 (H$272065.55) FR4 $2.90 5 54111 SANGUE REALE Chris Voak Chris Voak L15 (H$107666.03) FR5 $81.00 6 54750 LAVRA JOE Ray Jones Chris Lewis L15 (H$181252.64) FR6 $15.00 7 01114 HIMSELF NZ G F J Bond, S A Bond Dylan Egerton-Green L13 (H$95500.00) FR7 $26.00 8 26406 HAMPTON BANNER NZ Debra Lewis Jocelyn Young L15 (H$124674.00) FR8 $41.00 9 50508 WILDWEST NZ Gary Hall Snr Mitchell Miller L15 (H$144300.37) FR9 $41.00 ------------------------------ Second Row ------------------------------ 10 69031 MIGHTY RONALDO Justin Prentice Emily Suvaljko (C) L15 (H$104266.20) SR1 $9.00 11 35650 PATRONUS STAR NZ G F J Bond, S A Bond Deni Roberts L15 (H$132702.74) SR2 $26.00 12 43701 MIGHTY CONQUEROR NZ G F J Bond, S A Bond Colin Brown L15 (H$203721.00) SR3 $16.00 13 5s899 VULTAN TIN (Em 1) Daniel Costello SCRATCHED L15 (H$374574.85) SCR- $51.00 14 0s774 VAMPIRO NZ (Em 2) G F J Bond, S A Bond SCRATCHED L15 (H$330201.00) SCR- $34.00 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin and Jackie Butts horse Minstrel was also 3rd tonight , but won the FFA last week and 100k this year. is great prizemoney they race for in West Australia. Both horses with Female drivers . Deni Roberts seems to have taken over all the BOND team driving and is winning races hand over foot. the girls are killing it with wins.🥇 and Maddison Brown has won a heap of races with Diego past year or 2 and drives very well for Team HALL.

Diego has improved and has never raced better.saw his last two wins.yes Maddison brown has driven him well.i totally disagree that demi Roberts can drive at all.shes a shocking bad driver.i would never ever back her.i disagree demi Roberts has won race after race lately.she got shellshock beat at 1.20 at Pinjarra and raven banner at 1.30 in the last few weeks.i agree the prize money is awesome but why would you want to race a horse on that shocking bad track which is past its use by date due to the Standardbred becoming much more faster.the track is a disgrace like many in this fucked country.

The horse won None out of 10 starts for Dunns last year. So I would say that is in fact winning 'race after race' and she's driving 'pretty good' . but it might be just speculation on my part lol.....😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie bred horses generally are inferior to NZ bred horses and that is the basic reason that our exported do very well in Oz! Yes there are some Grand Circuit horses bred in Oz that go good.
