Funeral tomorrow for highly respected horseman (originally from Katanning) Ross Ashby after a long health battle.
Trained the majority of the 'Disco" horses for John and Sue Awcock of Bridgetown, which they bred from the broodmare gem Madam Butterfly, a sister to Tailamade Lombo, Espeshlimade Lombo etc.
Some of the really good ones included Disco Force (Ray Jones as well), Johnny Disco, Disco Flyer. Disco Spirit, Dalmore Disco and many many others. The 'Disco" prefix from John's kids Dianne and Scott.
Appropriately, Disco Dynamo saluted today at Bunbury.
