Can't beat good old parochialism, eh Kev?
Good owners, good horses, great trainers and acceptance of nothing but perfection might give the stable an edge.
There are only four ways I can think of to explain their dominance Trev
a) they are better trainers than anyone else in the world
b) success breeds success in that they are just about the only ones given the best bred horses in NZ
c) only immaculately bred horses become superstars
d) they have found something that is undetectable which gives their horses an advantage
Call me parochial if you like Trev. I could elaborate on all of the above but won't other than to say that c) is not true
