Tact Tama makes it four in a row
By Dave Di Somma -Harness News Desk
The father-son combo of Tim and Riley Butt continues to kick goals.
Last night Tact Tama, trained by Tim and driven by his son, was untroubled to make it four wins from four starts. Starting a $1.50 favourite the son of Christian Cullen speared to lead from barrier five in race six at Menangle in Sydney and from there the result was never in doubt.
The four year old cruised to the line to win by over seven lengths. The winning time for the 1609 metres was 1:51.9.
Tim Butt moved to Australia permanently around three years ago after a highly successful career on this side of the Tasman guiding such stars as Lyell Creek, Take A Moment, Mr Feelgood and Flashing Red.
