HRNSW was saddened to learn of the passing of respected Parkes horseman David Harris at the age of 74.
His family migrated from Ireland to Australia but David’s link to Ireland always remained strong. David’s last horse Outta Crossgar was named after the small village in Northern Ireland where his family originated.
Outta Crossgar won a heat of the Graeme Board & Co Sales Series at Bathurst last night, only hours before David passed away. He raced the unbeaten youngster with sons Robert, Darren and David Junior, daughter Belinda and her husband Scott Cusach and good friend Kevin Hogan.
David drove at the first night trotting meeting in Parkes and has been associated with many successful horses such as Atari Boy, Sharp Warrior and Express Girl.
David is survived by his wife Lorraine.
