aircon was a good jumper that won a few in arrow.. 

chumson  won them in a row as well, family had a betting syn each week,you had to double your money to have another go the following week,

so I took chumson with the field in doubles, (think it was Diamond Pal at something like $90+ and the double about the same)

ececute wasn't that trained by bill sanders? that stable had a few good jumpers back then..

use to visit a young lass in te awamutu, who was looking after/riding a  ex jumper call High Lark,

 

Yes! Bill Sanders trained  Exacute.

Hey. What about the mighty Cretan Owned by Nic Graffis. Bill Ford as a shuffle trainer.

Jimmy Gibbs rides in this pic on Cretan as he crossed his legs before landing.

Cretan did this leg crossing from an early age as a hurdler.

Notice the disks on the bridle that matched the saddle cloth number.

Jim Gibbs was never phased by this. He had a huge mortgage on a Burwood Road property

Cretan helped Jimmy out.
