09 January 2018 | Trots Media – Cody Winnell
John Caldow was at his top-class best at Tabcorp Park Melton last night, the champion reinsman guiding four winners home on the 11-race card.
The Melton reinsman has driven over 100 winners in a season on 20 occasions and has 3616 victories on the books all up.
Last night he drove a winning double for Junortoun horseman Bruce Morgan (Believe In Forever in the Allied Express 3YO Pace and Silent Growl in the Cogs Pace 2nd Heat).
Caldow and Morgan are a proven winning combination.
LISTEN TO JOHN CALDOW ON THE TROT LINE
“It was great to get a double for Bruce. We’ve been together for a lot of years now. Probably 20-odd years … and he’s had a few health issues last year and it’s really good for him to bounce back and get a couple of winners,” Caldow today told the Trot Line.
Also among Caldow’s winners last night was Anton Golino-trained Fiery Mountain Girl, too strong for Jay Pe De in the Aldebaran Park Trot, and Maree Caldow-trained Madeeba in the HRTC Bendigo Pace.
The Caldows raced Madeeba’s mother, Mesmerizing, who won 19 races and $180,000 in stakemoney on the track and has produced four winners as a broodmare thus far, including champion Messini (whose Bendigo Cup win at the weekend took his stake earnings to over $656,000).
Caldow said he had a two-year-old full-brother to Messini (by Art Major) at home who was showing plenty of promise.
