Oh yes they were the days my friend. You mentioned a few dogs I know vey well. Another Glitter what a great dog that was. Main Issue. (Wiping tears from my eyes.) just thinking about that dog.
Remember Bunyip Bint trained by Stan Cleverly out at Minto, one of the few dogs who beat Zoom Top fair and square. But had to break the track record at Harold Park over the 800 yards to do it though. For memory the time was I think 42.7 and she held it for many years, 10 I think.
Remember ONLY TEN and SARA PRINCESS. These two staying bitches were tiny dogs Around 47lbs, but brilliant stayers. These two were Harold Park specialists. Then what about FARRAFLASH. A dog who could and always did come from being tailled off around the back straight and still get up and win. SILENT RETREAT and FARRAFLASH were voted Quinella king and queen two years in a row.
So many wonder dogs to mention in just one post.
