The son of Zacinto goes one better today second up on the synthetic with the in-form Thomas Stockdale onboard to claim Ride of the day! A model of consistency in recent times and stalking the leader at the right time, pouncing, to draw away and win convincingly. Getting the unlucky barrier 1 again, however we...
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...
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 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...
In the lucky last race we saw Grey Northern step back out to the mile in BM58 grade where she was simply too classy for them. She jumped well from the suitable barrier, with jockey Matthew Cartwright electing to take a sit midfield and she was able to relax really nicely which had been a...
The day had arrived for talented Ocean Park gelding Oceans Above to deliver on the promise he’d shown us from day one, and he did just that in spectacular fashion. Jumping from a wide gate, jockey Harry Coffey was forced to take his medicine and go back to last. The speed was on early, with...
It was a massive build up to the $1,000,000 VOBIS Showdown on Saturday and our flying filly She’sallshenigans delivered in spades. Ridden by elite front running rider Linda Meech, Shelly bounced quickly and took up a position on the speed whilst sliding off the fence into the better ground. She travelled sweetly to the bend...
