Racing was huge in WA in the late 70s & early 80s. Big Money, big field & lots of raiders from the East at the Summer Carnival. For no particular reason I did up a list of WA horses from this era that raced and won in town for what it seemed an eternity… winning as 8, 9, 10 & 11 year old. Here is a list of WA BASED & TRAINED (no ES raiders in list) "war horse/veterans/warriors"
Sovereign Ghost
Heron Bridge
Bridge of Friendship
Brechin Castle
Tactics
Norms Delight ( I think It was winning as a 12YO).
Buckshot Bandit
Hanging in
Rex the Robber
Bunglar
Twin Spin
Cantabrian
Dots Best Bet
Ride the Eagle

Abindab
Major Croft

    There was a lot of other things going on in the time period as well Muppet . Which may explain to some extent why they raced on for longer
