JOE CAN’T CONTAIN HIS PRIDE IN CRUSHER
November 22, 2023
JOE Pride continued his red letter spring with a success in The Hunter with Coal Crusher and he couldn’t contain his admiration for the galloper after his win in the $1 million event at Newcastle.
In a spring where Pride has won three Group 1 races and The Everest the trainer rated that victory up there as one of his highlights.
The reason is that Coal Crusher is part-owned by his family and his son Brave was also his strapper.
The family embraced after he had crushed his rivals with his all the way win.
Pride said his son was in love with the galloper.
