ngakonui grass Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I know the Shoe rode Royal Derby 11 to win so might he have raced in nz under a different name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 hmmm. Mustelid Musing #161 The Queen was unlikely to have visited Dragsville, so Maxi suspects the horse won at Ellerslie or Trentham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me assure you, no one on this site, for a moment believes that would happen, so please keep it up Thanks To be honest Hesi your answer of Timon put me onto the Wgtn Cup and when PWJ mentioned the Queen it was a quick google and then Good Lord had his own little summary on Wiki. If my computer skills were 90% better i would know everything but they aren't and i don't. Sure is a learning curve trying to get these answers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted October 9, 2019 Author Share Posted October 9, 2019 I think Timon raced in front of the Queen at Ellerslie with Peter Johnson onboard. I recall also, Lester Piggott rode at Ellerslie. Bit hazy these days, the morphine has numbed the brain. Nah, I'm in good health and probably more to do with the Bourbon, Agavero and port Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From memory Jack also provided W D Skelton with his last win possibly on Greek Meer.Could be awfully wrong on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
