I'll have look for it again, shouldn't take me too much doing. My understanding from what was on there was that it wasn't taken from any publication, just an admirers own thoughts on the great horse.
Once thing I will say, I did watch him when I was young, first Court Jester at the Showgrounds and then along came Maori's Idol. I was obviously too young at the time to fully appreciate what it is that I was watching, apart from the obvious of a horse obliterating his rivals. The videos I spoke of in an earlier post also have a chapter on the horse. I was watching it last year with my brother and commented on how he looked more like a thoroughbred than a standard bred, what a magnificent looking animal he was.
