Other than his kids, Dads love for his horses was only rivalled by his love of yum cha.

Dear Sophie, Darcey, Auntie Marilyn, Sam, & Scott,
Such a tragic loss to the family – a kind and generous soul who’s love and gift for horses is second to none.
I think he’d be upstairs with John Senior, David Briese & Genni Briese sitting having a beer talking racing….
Hugs and love to you all at this difficult time!
