Good Lord was a New Zealand thoroughbred racehorse owned by Las Vegas lawyer Michael L. Hines (1920–1985).
Foaled in 1971, and purchased for just $6,250 as a yearling, Good Lord was by Zamazaan out of Love in Bloom.
The first Wellington Cup in 1977 was a thrilling encounter when he beat the great race mare Show Gate.
He raced under the name My Good Man in Australia and won the Sydney Cup in 1978.
In 1979, on U.S. soil, Good Lord won the Eddie Read Stakes under the champion American jockey Bill Shoemaker, while trained by the late Charles E. Whittingham.
