INTERDOMINIONS

 

YEAR: 1990

ADELAIDE - THORATE
Howard James, a 32 year old rookie teamed up with Thorate to win the 1990 edition of the Inter Dominions. Trained by Brian Hancock who won with Koala King in 1980, Thorate was one of two representatives from the stable in the Final with Brian electing to drive third placegetter Weona Chief. In winning, Thorate established a new track record at Globe Derby Park rating 2.00 minutes for the 2645 metre event. Tough Kiwi Gaelic Skipper split the pair.

 

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.
