Default Banana Man

Xanadu, I meant gilded but, as for gelded...might as well be.

Banana Man is the type of horse that fits the bill as a bush champion. I was thinking this the other day having forgotten about this posting.

Tudor Peak is one that seems to have flown under the radar probably because he only had a few runs (less than 20 I'm sure). He strung together 6 or 7 wins in a row and was one of those horses with that lovely place strike rate of about 90%. Most of this was done in big fields against good quality bush company. His best win was in the Ballarat Cup, always a difficult race.
