Spikecity 749 Report post Posted July 27, 2018 Interesting that he says his highlight was working at Allstars Matt Anderson will almost certainly head to Oamaru on Sunday knowing he is bowing out of the junior driving ranks as a winner. With a five-win lead in the Junior Driver Premiership before Addington tonight, where he has four live chances, Anderson will take the title in his fifth and last season as a junior. That is unless Ben Butcher can do the virtually impossible and win five races from five drives in Auckland tonight and draw level. Anderson’s career has been heading in the right direction from the start and this season he has had more drives (364), wins (42) and stakes won ($381,600) than any before, with 25 wins in the two preceding seasons having been his best. There’s been a number of highlights along the way including Invercargill Cups with Maverick and Costa Del Magnifico and Group 3 features with the juvenile filly Northern Velocity, while rated “right up there” was a debut win as a trainer with the two-year-old Pitch Perfect at Addington last month. A Bettor’s Delight gelding from Karen Donna purchased at the Premier Sale last year for $45,000, Pitch Perfect was then turned out for a month so Anderson will retain a 100 per cent strike rate as a trainer at season’s end. Anderson says his time at the All Stars Stable has to be the highlight of his career to date however. “Just having the chance to drive so many good horses and being able to observe and learn how they do things there, that taught me so much,” said Anderson Iraklis and Thejanitor 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

richie 1,027 Report post Posted July 28, 2018 I have known HunterP for 30 years and although I strongly disagree with some of his statements,especially the unfounded ones surrounding the Allstars,and some of his comments towards some others he is actually a nice guy. That is why I am surprised at some of his personal attacks.Personally I am one of the Allstars biggest fans but everybody is entitled to their opinions whether we think they right or wrong.

Iraklis 2,231 Report post Posted July 29, 2018 Richie, think about it for a mo 'which they generally wrong' so I have to ask 'what's the point of that statement? there's no point, if you just have a alittle think you'll see what the rest of us are on about, don't begrudge anyone their opinion, but the statement made by HP aint simple opinion, read it again.....I say again bold claims without any facts to back it up Cheers Iraklis Thejanitor 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lie to someone once and they will always doubt you, lie to someone many times (Brodie and Hunter) and no one listens to your opinion Iraklis and Thejanitor 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
