Reply #3 – March 09, 2014, 07:07:31 pm Sad to see him pass away....he was the man when I was young, best jockey in Aus and had the partnership with JB Cummings in most of the big races.....Hope Harry White is going ok...handbrake Harry has MS or something similar and I havent heard anything about him recently...
