Kozzie is apprenticed to Andrew Carston at Riccarton.

Kozzie won a race on a horse I have a share in at Greymouth last Tuesday. Very polished ride. Big chance of coming from nowhere and winning this seasons Jockey Premiership.

50 win no. 1 Wiremu Pinn is currently riding track work at Matamata for Ken and Bev Kelso.

Nerula that Climbing/ Mattiwilda double was at Avondale on the 31/3/62. It paid £520/2/6. Harry Long trained Climbing and Jim Ingram trained Mattiwilda.

Absolute disgrace that an extra race for the R65 1500m was not carded. I have a share in a horse that is having her fourth start today on the West Coast Circuit. She was a Maiden going into the circuit. If she had been a R65 she would have been lucky to get two runs. Eight race cards should be the norm if only to prevent overlapping of the two quaddies.

Oranmore was a remarkable sprinter winning 26 races of which 3 were in Australia- June Stakes, Pacesetter Stakes and Homestead Handicap. Initially trained at Paeroa by Les Jarvis then by owner Joe Doran at the same track. NZ record 2yo 4 wins Kevin Cullen 3 Graham McLiesh 1. 3yo 7 wins Tony Williams 4, Ken Reggett,Ken Mathews and JM Jones one each. 4yo 6 wins John Dooley 3 Tony Williams, Ken Mathews and P Paquet France one each, 5yo 1 win a dead heat with Rising Damp ridden by BA Doyle. 6yo 2 wins Toby Autridge and Cherie Saxon. 7yo 1 win G McGrath 8yo 2 wins Ken Reggett and Debbie Stockwell. Remarkably 13 different jockeys won on him in NZ!

Spikecity the Defence horses were trained at Inglewood by Clem Fabish.

Jan’s Beau, Gene and Kalgoorlie all very good front running horses.

The Dunedin Festival Cup was run on the 1/2/64. Invitation conditions standing start 3200m. Stake £2,500 plus a trophy valued at £150. 2.11 Class. Correction- distance 2 miles.

High Sparrow Whiti Te Ra hung on to win the 1968 NZ St Leger by 0.75 of a length from Impetus and Grenville Hughes. He was the rank outsider in the five horse field and paid $41.90 and $7.60.

Kate is riding regularly in NSW. Had two rides at Mudgee on Tuesday.

Blue Cabriere did not win the Wanganui Guineas. He didn’t run in it in 1961 but his stablemate Tara’s Pride won it in 1962.

Cabriere was bred in 1958 by Alpenhorn out of Midpicca. He raced 145 times for 23 wins. Owned by CW Ansford a prolific Stratford owner. Arch Tudor won 17 with him then Malcolm Smith 4 and Jim Didham 2. He won 7 of his 10 starts at 2. He raced until 11. His first win was at Stratford on the 24/10/60 ridden by Bob Jury. Kaye Tinsley was his regular rider. He won the 1963 Opunake Cup and the 1966 Marton Cup.
