In 2008, Tristram was also named in the New Zealand Racecourse Hall of Fame. The tale of the Tristram legend begins in 1976, when Patrick Hogan visited several famous horse training camps from England to Ireland and then to France. The purebred horses he scrutinized and estimated it would cost around $ 200,000 to get a purebred horse. But none of them could please him. When he returned to New Zealand, he received a letter of recommendation to Tristram, a pony of the English championship horse.
Now, Hogan recalls the father of an Irish judge: No horse is perfect. So, Hogan decided to buy Tristram. But that is only one obstacle. A fire broke out at the farm where Tristram is being kept for inspection. In a panic, a mare “gives” Tristam a kick back so hard that it almost ended Tristram’s illustrious stallion career before it began … More Tristram’s illnesses caused Hogan go through days of extreme anxiety. In the end, Tristram’s expectations and efforts paid off with a record of unbreakable awards.
