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’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...
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.

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...
After a highly anticipated first up run at Swan Hill that went awry, Shootoose had a point to prove at the Ballarat synthetic on Saturday. With Lachie King in the saddle and very little speed on paper, Shootoose jumped well and settled just in behind the speed, travelling sweetly to the 600m. At that point...
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...
Coming off a lacklustre performance at Sale at his previous start at Sale, we made the trek out to Pakenham on Thursday night with more questions than answers about the horse, but the answers came to us very quickly after race 7 – he’s back. He jumped with them and was steered into an excellent...
