Bonecrusher

Bonecrusher is arguably one of New Zealand racing’s great horses. He was the first New Zealand horse to earn a $1 million, and he won 18 races as a three- and four-year-old, nine of them in internationally significant races (group 1 level). Watch Bonecrusher win the 1986 Caulfield Stakes in Melbourne in typical style.
