The combo which kick started my love for the game & betting career was Gerald Boy, trained by Johnny Nicholson & jock was Gerald Turner.
I was taken to most of his races & had my first bet, a winning one, on him when I was 13 years old.
Needless to say, its all gone downhill since then.

Growing up, my other favourite horses were Town Council, Wagga Wagga & Tribesman.
I dont remember the connections. :unsure:

Swan Prince with Lester in the saddle was one of the best rides Ive ever seen, brilliant.
