INTERDOMINIONS

 

YEAR: 1997

OUR SIR VANCEALOT
The title of Inter Dominion Champion for 1997 went to Our Sir Vancelot but the star of the show was his trainer Brian Hancock. Having previously trained two winners, namely Thorate and Weona Warrior, Brain was looking to become the first trainer in Inter Dominion history to achieve the treble. In what could only be described as daring tactics Brian rushed Our Sir Vancelot to the lead and then shot clear before the home turn. Although he tired near the finish and had to await the result of a very close photo finish with Rainbow Knight, he claimed the victory, and clearly established the Inter Dominion series as one that belonged to master trainer Brain Hancock.

 

YEAR: 1998

HOBART - OUR SIR VANCEALOT
Hot off the back of a strong win in the previous Inter-Dominion series Our Sir Vancelot pulled out the necessary when it really counted to win consecutive Inter-Dominions. There was much controversy surrounding the venue for this Inter-Dom but Brian Hancock didn’t mind.

 

YEAR: 1999

AUCKLAND - OUR SIR VANCEALOT
Defending again Our Sir Vancelot proved what a champion he was when he emerged through three average runs in the heats to take his game to the next level in the final and make it an unprecedented three Inter-Dominions in a row. The pre-post favourite for the series Christian Cullen was sensationally scratched the day after winning his first-round heat win. Only hours after this the new favourite Agua Caliente suffered the same fate. Our Sir Vancelot gradually improved through the series and a tactically perfect drive from Brian Hancock saw Our Sir Vancelot home once again.
