New Zealand eventer Monica Spencer has enjoyed competing at the pinnacle of the equestrian world this year, and she has done it all on the back of a New Zealand off the track thoroughbred.
“Most of our horses will be racing up here for the next three or four months, there’s nothing better than racing on your home track. No travelling for the horses and saves costs for the owners."
If ever a horse deserved a big race victory it is the consistent sprinter Imwonderfultonight, and the mare got that result at Otaki on Saturday when she took out the Listed City Of Napier Sprint (1200m).
A trip to the Queensland winter carnival is in the mix for progressive mare Imwonderfultonight and she could firm up plans with another strong showing this weekend.
