Anderton, Parsons quickly into stride
The South Island trainers, Brian Anderton and John Parsons, are high on the trainers’ premiership table after six weeks of the new season.
Anderton and Parsons have each trained six winners, the same number as produced by
Graeme Rogerson. The early leader in the premiership is Woodville trainer Murray Baker, who has produced eleven winners so far. The O’Sullivan stable has' not started as quickly, but has four winners.
David Walsh, with eleven winners, leads the
jockeys’ premiership with one more success than that of Greg Childs. Noel Harris, invariably a fast beginner, is next with eight winners. Vice Regal, the success of whose stock in the early spring would just about justify a betting system being built around it,
is a clear leader as a sire of winners, Royal Creation’s victory at Avondale on Wednesday marking his eighth individual winner for the season. Zamazaan has seven winners to date, while Inglewood’s Beaufort Sea is well up the list with five winners.
