Cherry Taylor - Trelawney Stud: This is a bit out of left field but I think Dame Trelise Cooper is a cool lady. She has built an amazing business. Still working but has done a lot in the community, most people don’t know all she’s done she is very humble.
Andrew Seabrook - New Zealand Bloodstock: Rough Habit. I loved that horse.
John Galvin - Fortuna: Sir Edmund Hillary.
Henry Plumptre - Cambridge Stud: Sir Peter Vela.
Paul Moroney - Paul Moroney Bloodstock: My late father Denny.
Russell Warwick - Westbury Stud: I admire Rob Waddell, he was an outstanding sportsman and has given an enormous amount back to sport in general and a large number of New Zealanders since retiring from international competition.
Wade Smith - Westbury Stud: Richie McCaw, legend.

Nick Fairweather - Carlaw Park: Of all time, Jonah Lomu.
Rick Williams - The Oaks Stud: Peter Snell.
Robert Wellwood - Kingsclere Stables: I’m hoping after Saturday my answer will be James McDonald!
Cam Rodger - Entain: I could watch Steven Adams' interviews all day - so authentically and unapologetically Kiwi at all times.
Jo Griffin - Lime Country Thoroughbreds: Has to be Greg Griffin.
Caroline Searcy - Searcy Media: Blimey tough question! I don't meet too many Kiwis I don't like! Hard to pick a fav... The person I always love catching up with and am very fond of would be Cat Williams from Little Avondale. Not only an incredibly tough and inspirational human being, but just fantastic company too.
