Veteran Cairns co-trainer Trevor Rowe hopes to share in a gold medal moment with son Peter when the pair bid for their first Cleveland Bay Handicap at Townsville on Saturday.
For Trevor, it will be the proudest moment in his 40-plus year training career to share the gold medal podium with his son if their stable flag bearer Smart Image wins the 1300 metre feature.
Trevor Rowe has won a host of country feature races during his long career including a Cairns Newmarket and Cairns Cup in 2016 but has missed the mark so far in the Cleveland Bay.
“Peter has been by my side since he could walk,” Trevor said.
“He’s been with me all the way, so it’ll be a pretty special moment for me, if we win the Cleveland Bay.”
