Over Seventy years and the story of Phar Lap, a horse from New Zealand, remains an integral part of Australian fabric. A romantic tale with themes of success, tragedy, of hope and depair, at a time when Australians needed a hero to look to.
Randwick trainer Harry Telford – admired the horse and his distant pedigree which traced to the other Australian turf hero, Carbine. Telford bought the horse for investor David Davis, but Davis was so unimpressed with the purchase that Telford raced the horse himself under a lease until the end of 1930. In the meantime, he and the horse completed a rags-to-riches saga by annexing all the great races in the land....
