Michael also played Mary Lou in the winning Victorian Mens team at the 2006 Nationals held in Camden. In the Final Mary Lou was in the No. 2 position with the No.3 horse being 'Jet' ridden by Lance Anderson who won the best player in the Mens Final.'Jet' is sired by Roseridge Box Office who is also the sire of Roseridge Showbox.
