In his first three seasons in the sulky, Neville Webberley drove thirteen winners. In his fourth season he managed to drive 34 winners including the 1981 Easter Cup with Sunshine Jim at the age of 20, it was the first of many feature race wins in a successful career in the industry which sees him as one of the states all-time greats as both a trainer and driver.
His accolades in the industry saw him be one of the inaugural inductees into the Tasmanian Harness Racing Hall Of Fame in 2014.
