BLAST FROM THE PAST

1963 INTERDOMINION GRAND FINAL: Won by Cardigan Bay

ADELAIDE - CARDIGAN BAY
Cardigan Bay became Inter-Dominion Champion in 1963 but not before overcoming what was a horrific training accident in 1962. So badly was Cardigan Bay injured that for a while it was touch and go for his life. He was in obvious pain and there were thoughts of putting him out of his misery. Cardigan Bay was nursed back to full fitness and the rest is history. What a great horse. Cardy started from 24 yards and won from Dusty Miller and Waitaki Hanover.
