Parr and Moody in Warwick Farm double

Saturday 1 December 2012, 6:37pm

Josh Parr continued his association with the Peter Moody stable in Sydney with a winning double for the trainer at Warwick Farm on Saturday.

And Parr hopes it continues after partnering Office Bearer to an easy win early in the day and then rounding out the meeting with success on stablemate Privately.

"It's been a good day," Parr said.

"The first bloke (Office Bearer) I was really keen on coming to ride today and the other bloke was an interesting runner.

"There was a wrap on him when I first rode him three weeks ago but he was just a bit heavy and wasn't quite fit enough."

Privately disappointed in his first start in Sydney but bounced back to take out the 2013 ATC Membership On Sale Now Handicap (1400m).

"Today he stripped fitter and from the moment I got on him I could tell he was feeling good," Parr said.

Parr has been riding the bulk of Moody's horses in Sydney including a victory in the Listed Gimcrack Stakes on Brilliant Bisc in October.

"It's really good to be getting the opportunity," Parr said.
