Forster dreaming big with three-year-olds

Wednesday 16 December 2015, 4:14pm

Trainer Desleigh Forster and jockey Robbie Fradd maintained their 25 per cent winning strike rate at Beaudesert on Wednesday but had far bigger things on their minds.

Assertory ($7.50) gave the combination its sixth win from 24 starters this season with her victory in the Game On International Hcp (1100m).

"She can still do a few things wrong but there is a Saturday class win in her once she puts it all together," Forster said.

Forster took time out from celebrations to outline her immediate plans for her classy three-year-olds Cylinder Beach, I'm Belucci and Too Good To Refuse.

The trio were given short breaks after producing good performances during the winter and spring.

Forster said Cylinder Beach, a dual Group Two placegetter, would tackle the Vo Rogue Plate at the Gold Coast on Boxing Day.

"I'm Belucci is nominated for the Magic Millions Guineas on January 9. It is probable he will run but we will be having an owners' meeting this week," Forster said.

"After the meeting I will be able to confirm the Guineas run but it is worth $2 million so it is hard to bypass."

Forster said Too Good To Refuse, fifth in the Spring Champion Stakes, would resume in a three-year-old race at the Sunshine Coast on January 16.

"At this stage I plan to give all three one or two runs here and then head to Sydney for their carnival," she said.

Fradd has been confirmed as the jockey for Cylinder Beach but no rider has been determined for I'm Belucci or Too Good To Refuse.
