D E R B Y I N R E V I E W 💥

“So another derby is done!

If anyone finds a lung in the Bob Charter Arena….. it’s mine.

I am so proud of Bengston for seeing the finish. I did not have ideal prep for the show and didn’t think I would make the big one. After the disappointment of the round and just wishing he was not like a runaway train towards the end. I just have to remind myself how privileged I am to be able to be part of the big class and see the finish. It’s such a prestigious day to be part of. To have him home sound and happy in his grass paddock is most rewarding.

To have my team and wingman Dumisani there who shares in the excitement and disappointment is always special. To Emmanuel who looks after Bengston at home and watched the live streaming ….. demanding a win 😂 you all make this journey worthwhile. A huge thanks to the United Aviation Group, Kyalami Park, officials and all other sponsors for making the 1st of October 2023 another very memorable day.”
