Unfortunately, recurring soreness stopped him from showing his best form in recent years. Another seven horses have been inspected by the New Zealand Trotting Conference for shipment to Australia They include three yearlings, a two-year-old and a brood mare. Also Included in the shipment are Focal Point, a moderate winner when trained at Methven by C. V. May. He will race in Melbourne. Fredell, a half-brother by Young Charles to Battle Fling, is also to race in Melbourne, where he will be trained by A. Simons.
