As she did in the 1981 New Zealand Cup, Armalight, this time under a masterly drive from ace reinsman Peter Wolfenden, made no race of the 1983 Auckland Cup.
Sad news that Peter Wolfenden has passed away at the age of 88 (February 2023). When watching this video, keep an eye on #6 and watch how Peter changes Armalight's position during the race, know ing when to make the right moves to put her in a winning position. RIP, Peter.
I remember this win win Armalight clearly as if it was yesterday. If my memory serves me well, I think she paid 18 bucks at the tote. Peter Wolfy was very patient in that drive and what a decisive win.
