What a horse. Growing up in NZ in those days you didn’t get to see the big Australian races. I believe he was only average over here before moving to WA and we never saw him again.
Doubtful any horse at that time could have beaten Village Kid in this race from anywhere, but a dreadful drive from Knight, I watched it at the time and it left me scratching my head, you have a trail on a horse that's running what at the time were blistering quarters to move off the fence and sit outside. One of the worst drives I've seen in a major race in Australia.

Superstar... should've gone to.NZ in '87
Bill Horn (owner) never left Australia with him. Even though he was purchased from NZ.
@@garycody1929 it's a shame he was a rocket in his 6yo season
Good God, the driver of Stylish Guy flogged the horse to death down the straight!
If knight stayed on his back he probably would have won this
Lol

Bag limit would have finished 2nd at best. Nothing would have beaten the kid that night
