Ponderosa8 1,366 Report post Posted December 20, 2017 Just popped into my head that I hadnt seen Kane Smiths name for a while, so just looked up the NZTR website and he hasnt ridden since April and his profile is 'INACTIVE" So he's obviously given up but hadnt read it anywhere. A real battler but was never afraid to back a horse with him riding it. hizzy 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
