Too right! Totally agree & we are thrilled the milestone came on a horse we train - he deserves every success that comes his way!
Lot of people in NZ and plenty overseas will be stoked to see @McnabMjmcnab get his 1000th domestic win at Ellerslie today.
He is an immense talent, a bloody good bloke and after his career took the occasional detour he buckled down and became a star. We all proud of you Nabba 💪
