12 wins

Raced 1960-70s

A late 1960s galloper who had his problems but is rated by many good judges as one of the best horses to be trained at the Gold Coast. His best wins included the BTC Carnival Handicap (twice), BTC Summer Cup and Bernborough Handicap. Many rated him a bit unlucky when second to the champion Tails in the 1968 QTC Derby. He was so highly rated he was once a ruling favourite for the Caulfield Cup and also a Doomben Cup.
