From the Showgrounds era... It's 1966. A week before the A G Hunter Cup, 8YO Tasmanian mare Tenth Rose (Henry Pullen) at 10/1 defeats a classy FFA field inc. Stormy Bruce, Fiery Land, Fosmar, Future Raider and that year's Inter winner Chamfer Star.
When Chamfer Star (Brian Forrester for Max Treuer) made a clean sweep of the 1966 Inter-dominion Series. 36,000+ people attended the Grand Final at Harold Park. In the Leger we stood in almost non-stop rain for the entire meeting. Unforgettable. Denis.
