New Zealand racing has lost not only a great jockey and trainer, but also an identity, says New Zealand First Leader Winston Peters.
For years Bob Skelton and his brothers were an iconic family of the industry.
The Skeltons made a remarkable contribution to racing in both this country and Australia.
Bob always said he was fortunate to have such a career. Many New Zealanders were fortunate to witness the glory days at the track when he rode a winner.
New Zealand First sends our condolences to Bob's family.
