The champion harness horseman talks about the tragedy that turned his family upside down early in his life.
He reflects on his first win at Echuca and the thrill of his first Moonee Valley win. John talks of his long and happy marriage to Maree and his wife’s success as a trainer.
The talented horseman pays tribute to his all time favourite horses and the tough years when he would often drive horses at two meetings in a day.
This man has driven more than 3,700 winners including 20 Gr 1’s. He’s an ornament to Victorian harness racing and is a very welcome podcast guest.
