Hasselhoof went out for a spell on February 27, a week after he finished third at Rosehill, and returned to the Donna Logan and Chris Gibbs stable last week in magnificent order, weighing in at 540kg.
“He has been spelling in Cambridge and he’s thrived,” said Logan. “He’s still growing.”
Hasselhoof is unbeaten in six New Zealand starts, culminating with his win in the Gr.2 Rich Hill Mile at Ellerslie on New Year’s Day. He was then taken to Sydney where he finished fourth in his Australian debut at Randwick before his third to Arab Dawn in the Listed Parramatta Cup.
“He’ll probably go back to Sydney in the spring, rather than Melbourne,” said Logan. “There are some nice races in Sydney for him and if he comes up well he could run in the Metropolitan.”
