Readers of this site will be familiar with my enthusiasm for the Waimate-based son of Footstepsinthesand. Recent events have done nothing to dull that positive attitude.
Day 1 on the carnival saw the tough Street Fightin’ Man win the open sprint; Wednesday was Peecee Pussycat’s turn in the limelight with his victory in the open staying event; the final day featured the exciting Riviera Rebel dominate his rivals in the R75 1600 race.
It is certainly fair to say that these three winners don’t resemble each other much and they certainly operate over a variety of distances. However, they all are tough, sound individuals who show a strong will to win.
And isn’t that what breeding thoroughbreds is all about?
