Perth's fairytale galloper King Kool Kat completed an unbeaten winter campaign in style when he scored a brilliant win in the $130,000 Listed Hannan's Handicap (1400m) at Kalgoorlie on Wednesday, reports Breednet.com.au.
It says: Despite being caught three deep during the early to middle stages of the race, the King Cugat gelding was able to race clear over the concluding stages for a comprehensive win. The win was the sixth straight for King Kool Kat - who is fast becoming the most popular galloper in Western Australia.
"It's a dream - and it's come true," Glading said. "He did it the hard way. He did all the work and he was still good enough. It's just been amazing. There's a few people that need thanking - my track rider Tiarnna and my partner Alison who do all the work on the horse. They've done a great job and there's a few other people behind the scenes as well."
King Kool Kat is a life changing horse and Glading has been noticing plenty of changes over recent weeks.
"We walk the streets or go into the restaurants and people yell out to us and ask us how the horse is," Glading said. "He goes to the track in the mornings and people come up and pat him - all the jockeys, track riders and strappers - they all come to see him. He is such a beautifully natured horse - he's almost become everyone else's horse."
