Lyndon Bond’s 100th win as a trainer was far from just another victory.<\/p>\n
The Mataura horseman completed the feat when Rack’em Up went one place better than his huge second at Gore last weekend in the finale at Ascot Park on Thursday.<\/p>\n
The victory was an emotional one for the Bond family, especially the trainer’s daughter Chloe and her partner Kamryn Reedy, who share in the ownership of Rack’em Up.<\/p>\n
“Chloe’s partner Kamryn, his mother lost her husband three weeks ago; it’s very tragic,\u201d Bond said.<\/p>\n
“To have her here today is amazing; it really is.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Bond was quick to praise his family’s involvement in his stable and their contribution to him cracking a ton of training victories.<\/p>\n
“My wife Aimee does a hell of a lot of work in the background and I appreciate everything.”<\/p>\n
“James and Millie, the whole family get in behind me and they do a bit every day.”<\/p>\n
“That’s what makes it more emotional when you get the hundy.”<\/p>\n
Recently, Bond has struck up a good relationship with driver Carter Dalgety, who piloted Rack’em Up to victory.<\/p>\n
The pacer came to the Bond stable after recently being trained by Andrew Drake, who works alongside Carter at Cran and Chrissie Dalgety’s barn.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“He’s a great old horse and I thank Andrew Drake and his partner for giving him to us.”<\/p>\n
Chloe Bond and Kamryn Reedy race Rack’em Up with Craig, Tanya and Dylan Heyrick as well as the trainer’s mother Colleen Bond.<\/p>\n
Colleen Bond is the wife of Jimmy Bond who enjoyed a stellar training and driving career in Southland.<\/p>\n
Lyndon has kept the Bond name up in lights, beginning with his first training win with Martin McGuinness at Forbury Park in 2015.<\/p>\n
The trainer has built his team up since and now looks a huge chance of posting a personal best when the current season ends.<\/p>\n
Reflecting on his achievement, Bond was absolutely thrilled.<\/p>\n
“It’s pretty awesome \u2013 it really is.”<\/p>\n
“It has taken a while to break it, a couple of times we thought we would get there.”<\/p>\n
Rack’em Up’s victory was Bond’s 15th of 2026.<\/p>\n
The trainer’s best season came in 2022 when he posted 17 wins.<\/p>\n
