Pins’ son Torgerson adds to record

23 November 2015

Torgersen doubled his winning tally when he triumphed for champion trainer Chris Waller at Rosehill on Saturday afternoon. The WS-bred and sold son of Pins made it two victories to go with his two placings from just seven appearances when he was successful over 1400 metres.

He is a three-year-old son of Pins and the O’Reilly mare Oh So Glam, who is a member of one of the Matamata farm’s best families. She is a half-sister to the multiple Group One winners Vision And Power (Doncaster Handicap, George Ryder Stakes) and Glamour Puss (Salinger Stakes, Goodwood Handicap).

Togersen was purchased by Waller out of WS’s Premier Sale draft at Karaka last year for $170,000.

The Corner with Garry Chittick

I keep on proposing my retirement from the burden of a weekly Corner. I make the excuse it is hard to be credible, hard to let the two of you know about anything in our sport that hasn’t been covered before.
