In the nearly fifty year history of the Canterbury Classic, that will held at Addington on Friday night, only four horses have won it two years running.
Those to go back-to-back have been Lazarus (2016-17), Monkey King (2009-2010) , Bonnie’s Chance (1982-83) and Elmer Gantry (1989-90).
Monkey King won his second Canterbury Classic ten years ago before going on to win his second New Zealand Cup so we paid a visit to Dancingonmoonlight farm in North Canterbury and talked to Sara Famularo about how the horse they call “Sam” is enjoying retirement.
