Reneged – terrific 3^rd in the Grafton Cup!!!

Reneged topped off a good week on the track when he ran a gallant 3^rd in the Grafton Cup over 2350m.  Craig Newitt put him in a nice place heading out of the straight but the eventual winner put him in a pocket and kept him there until they turned for home which probably cost us the race.

Our other notable performances were Casa De Lago was second in the Rivette Final at Flemington and Annaman looked the winner at Morphettville only to be grabbed on the line.  Kissing Game ran home strongly for 3^rd at Warwick Farm and isn’t far off a win.  Husson Eagle ran his usual honest race in the Sprint Final.  Hussy’s Glow didn’t have much go right in the Leilani Final and was doing her best work late.

Chalmers had a day to forget in the Grafton Guineas.  He was stirred up before the race and was never in the hunt.

The New Season is only a couple of weeks off, and we have some of our very good young horses in work preparing for the big races. Our star two years old’s Zizzis and Golden Script are in work with Patrick Payne and Darren Weir and Our Long Sali will head into work in 10 days.

The Goldmarket winner Raido is coming along nicely and will be ready to race in about two weeks.

My eye is always on the Magic Millions day in January on the Gold Coast where we have had so much success.  I have purchased and managed the winners of eight Magic Millions feature races since 2010 and hope to be well represented again in 2019. 

I hope you enjoy your racing and I look forward to a successful end to the 2018/19 Season where we have continued to punch above our weight.

Invincible Al Heads to Flemington next week!!!
