She always tried her heart out when on the track.
SWEEPING THE BOARD
Handy galloper who won two races and placed on four occasions from only 9 starts in the Viva silks. Always seemed to draw the outside barriers in his races. Retired a last start winner prior to injury forced an early retirement.
SUBTERRANEAN
Early running 2 year old who matched it with some of the best gallopers in country during the early part of his career. Subby was only a $30,000 purchase but took his owners on a great ride. Highlight was winning the Group 3 Ken Russell Stakes at the Gold Coast.
STORMY ROCK
Highly talented galloper with a booming finish. When Stormy was "on" he was always tough to beat. Stormy won four races during his career including City wins in both Sydney and Brisbane. His win at Doomben coming from well back in the field was a highlight for owners.
DIVINE ELEVEN
Tough on pace middle distance horse who always tried his heart out in his races. Highlight was winning four races in a preparation in 2021
VIVENDO IL SOGNO
Vivendo il Sogno is Italian for "Living the Dream" He was named and raced in honor of our great mate Malcolm Wallis who left up too soon in 2018. Mal's favorite saying was "Living the Dream"
