who is hammie?

and why does he have so many horses named after him or herself?

Hamiltons rugby club

He is a big supporter...they were national club champs a few years back...the colours the horses runs in are the same as the club jersey.

thanks FC always wondered about "Hammie" (Pictured a Scots's Gent in a kilt with a Hooker on his arm)

Absolutely amazing the knowledge collectively on this site (tu)

I think those colours belonged to a man called Allan Leonard a patron of Brian Wiid, Im 95% sure. He also took the colours from a rugby club near Turfontein. Union rugby club

Mostly correct chaps, Hammie is an ex Hamiltons rugby player and now the main investor behind the club. Bryn Ressel is his name and there's no shortage of the green stuff !!!! Involved in oil trading for a start. The colours are indeed the club's which is in fact the oldest rugby club in SA dating from the late 1800's. he's mainly in partnership with a few blokes, including Mike Bass, Shirtloff, Bortz etc

nice to see you post again Beyond the Pale.....(tu)
