Ararat was taken by storm when out small, but mighty Toronado gelding Toro De Carga secured his maiden in fine style under the guidance of gun apprentice Tom Prebble. He jumped with them and travelled well in running, sitting three-back the fence. Upon straightening Tom did not panic, he stuck to the rail like glue...
Last night at Pakenham our classy filly by The Autumn Sun, Sinister Sauce, put her carnival credentials to the test and came away a winner over the mile in a tough performance. She had very little go her way in the run with gun jockey Damian Lane letting her stride three wide without cover for...
On Sunday the SZR team made the trek down to Sale with high expectations with our progressive import Maktoob to be sent out the resounding favourite in the Ladbrokes Sale Cup. The $200,000 Listed feature looked a very winnable race on paper with the Gavin Bedgood trained Keats looking the main danger. Maktoob jumped well...
There was a sense of anticipation in the air for the owners of Djockovic on Sunday at Seymour when he lined up in the Fowles Wines Maiden Plate. After running the fastest last 200m of the meeting at Sale over the unsuitable 1400m, the writing was on the wall. Djockovic jumped positively and was able...
On Wednesday at Sale stable newcomer Chargenlikapluma broke through for a much deserved maiden win after being the bridesmaid in his first two runs for the stable. Aided by a lovely ride by Blaike McDougall, the Pluma settled back in the small field and peeled out down the middle, showing a terrific turn of foot....
On Sunday at Bendigo exciting So You Think colt Don’t Hope Do made his presence felt at his very first start, showing great speed and tenacity to take out the Workforce Extensions Maiden Plate. The 1000m is certainly going to be short of his best trip but his ability was able to get him over...
On Saturday at Moonee Valley up and coming stayer Duke of Hastings staked a claim to involve himself in some nice races throughout the Spring with a big metropolitan win. The plan was to jump and settle in the first half of the field, however that didn’t work out and we were forced to snag...
On Monday at Echuca we sent Tavisteel up the freeway on her lonesome to tackle the BM58 1600m. The solitary thinking time clearly did the trick as she stormed away from her rivals to score a soft win. With in-form jockey Lachie King in the saddle, she was able to get the gun run three...
Fresh off an impressive Class 1 victory at Pakenham last month, Maktoob was out to test his metropolitan credentials in the BM70 at Sandown yesterday. After jumping well from a sticky gate, jockey Dean Holland was able to slot him into a nice position just worse than midfield. He travelled quite strong at certain sections...
On Thursday night First Light Racing filly Grey Northern broke through for a much deserved maiden win after taking on the best fillies of her generation throughout the Spring. Jumping well from the kind gate, jockey Jamie Mott was able to find the perfect spot in the run behind the speed and settled nicely. Mindful...
