The Inter Dominion Championship has strong links to Western Champion New Zealand mare Robin Dundee was sent out as the Australia. hot favourite after dominating the heats. Most pundits expected her to win the final. It was in 1923 that WA’s remarkable administrator James Brennan at a conference of trotting officials presented the concept of an She had dead-heated with Jay Ar in the 1965 final - still the only dead-heat in the rich history of the Inters - and was being hailed as the horse most likely to win the 1966 version.

Tasmanian pacer Chamfer Star took up the early running and despite a courageous effort from Robin Dundee, the horse from the apple isle prevailed in a slogging finish to deny the Kiwi mare. That race will always remain in my memory as one of the great spectacles I have been fortunate enough to see.
