crustyngrizzly 1,700 Report post Posted January 6, 2019 Just been reading the Times and i see a memoriam notice for Peter Venn.Died 20 years ago today. Still remember that jumper he used to ride Resolution,he was a pretty smart animal. Just one of many that his dad saddled up that were pretty good.

gubellini 3,996 Report post Posted January 7, 2019 Peter’s first win was on Lord Trustful at Matamata on the 15/7/72. In the 1974-5 Season he rode four winners including three on No Surrender. Remarkably he won 12 races on Resolution- 3 Highweights, 2 Hurdles and 7 Steeplechases. Their best wins being the 1983 King Country Steeplechase the 1983 Pakuranga Hunt Cup and the 1984 Waikato Steeplechase.
