Craig Peters Such an iconic voice.

--:--
What a morning it was for me an avid horseman to sit with an iconic voice of South African horse racing..
Just to hear the voice invokes the adrenalin rush.
I remember the 50cents of school boy bets, the should I shouldn’t I of bigger bets. I was never a player in the large sense of the racing world, but as a young rider i listened to the late Ernie Duffield, at the Durban July.
Friends and i relived every moment with Sea cottage ,when he was shot
A friend Chris and I rode on our bikes after school to the racing stables in Durban and begged to groom horses and we did this as often as we could.
I remember the late Fred Rickaby the trainer,, was really tolerant of us.
Once horses are in your blood you have a problem.
To sit with Craig Peters bought back the wonder of horseracing
We had horse heroes in those days, . boy do I feel old.
