Ch2 ODDS AND ENDS - not big enough for a thread of their own

[Adaptor]

I am not home until tomorrow night but from the pre-HRA website era a quick perusal of my 1984/85 Year Book should provide an answer.

I'm guessing: Preux Chevalier wins the 1984 Whinfield CUP at Moonee Valley. Check out Peter Donegan's pink jacket...but great vision of the race.

Nope going by the video that was 8th December.

This was at Moonee Valley though.

Just looking at some of the beaten brigade in that Vic Cup and 2nd horse Panyan interestingly also won on 20th Oct 1984 at MV. V Knight sure got them fit. It was first up 13th Oct. Then from just 20th Oct to 5th Nov won 5/5.

Edit: Do I dare mention similarities with Boncel Benjamin to Panyan going from being driven (possibly trained) by S Duffy to then going to grand circuit horse with new trainer!!
