I remember Iga Ninja fairly well.

He was a neat black horse which was out early as a two year old winning the Canonbury Stakes-Listed at his second start just a week after running fourth in the Breeders Plate. He won again at Randwick 2 weeks later & in the Autumn finished a creditable 7th in the Golden Slipper Stakes -Gr 1 behind Star Watch & with that season's champion colt Zeditave 6th I think.

He was by a low budget Biscay horse named Sylvester which Stanley Wootton had bred & which stood up in the Hunter Valley & got a few handy bush horses.

Iga Ninja himself went to stud but from abt 50 live foals over 10 or 12 yeras only sired a handful of winners.

Can't help with a photo sorry.

The other Iga Ninja on the database here also raced in Australia & was a Gr 1 winning sprinter BTW.
