Our small but mighty Capitalist filly SOJU took to the stage at Cranbourne under the lights to give her rivals a schooling over the short trip of 1000m. As the saying goes ‘let fast horses be fast’ and that is exactly what in-form apprentice Celine Gaudray did. She jumped extremely cleanly and flew the machines,...
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...
It was an exciting day on Tuesday as classy Rubick three year old Ruada notched up his maiden win in hot conditions at Bendigo. Sent around third pick in the market coming off a nice trial, Ruada jumped cleanly from the inside barrier with Damian Lane aboard. He got a lovely run in behind the...
It’s not going to be a win that gives SZR headlines in the newspaper, nor will it line our pockets with riches but Brilliant Venture’s victory yesterday at Swan Hill is what racing is all about. A mere $22,000NZD purchase from the New Zealand South Island, the horse was syndicated amongst a group of Simon’s...
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...
If there wasn’t enough reasons to love Caulfield Guineas Day, the owners of Maktoob found another on Saturday when the classy import took out the BECK Grand Handicap. Sent out an $8 chance after a slashing run at Flemington last time out, Maktoob drew a much kinder barrier and looked on paper like he’d get...
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...
