Good thing Jimmy went on that trail ride.

"The story behind Lizard’s Desire is a rather incredible one according to South African racing expert Jimmy Lithgow, told here in Singapore this week. Breeder A J Boshoff was out for a trail ride in the rural bush of South Africa and had been given a mare to ride that, by his keen eye and feel, he thought was a decent thoroughbred. After completing the ride, Boshoff asked the owner if he could buy the mare, Annsfield. Eventually, he bred Annsfield to the lackluster Australian runner Lizard Island and off they went."

Congrats to MdK on his lovely boy AND to the HK team... he finally lived up to his potential!

Hahahaha Waikato came home ahead of the mighty Presvis. Sorry but this made me laugh. (cough cough over cough rated).
