Party Line was a really good daughter of Alan Adare back in the day in KZN. Was trained by late C.Hyde.

Of course another of the same name followed again but never rings any bells like the above-mentioned.

The great Politician's owners were so unimpressed with him they paid Mr. Syd Laird a year's keep upfront just so as to not be bothered with him.

Syd Laird had a special boot for him to put his legs in every day because of his gummy joints.

Thanks for that...I suspect that if he wasn't bought by breeders they would have cut him...do you know who the under bidder was?
