From Kris Lees
Horse : Award Season
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 2, Richmond Club Provincial Stayers Championship Final) Award Season has made a remarkable comeback from serious injuries. He was off the scene for two and a half years – and wasn’t disgraced when fifth to Hippopus in the Listed Canberra Cup early last month. He should get a nice run from the inside alley.
Horse : Danish Twist
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 5, Lander Toyota Ladies Day Cup Benchmark 85 Hcp) The three weeks between runs isn’t a concern. This race was the more suitable option before she goes to the Dark Jewel Classic at Scone in a fortnight.
Horse : Electric Power
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 6, Godolphin Crown) She needs more rain to enhance her prospects.
From Chris Waller
Horse : She’s Miss Devine
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Melbourne Race 4, No Fuss Event Hire Hcp) Last start winner, she’s not the easiest horse to ride but Craig’s the right man on board. Barrier 2 will help as well.
Horse : Scandal Sheet
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Melbourne Race 7, Sky High Mt Dandenong Hcp) He’s been model of consistency. There’s no reason why that should change on Saturday.
Horse : Hollywood Bound
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Melbourne Race 9,MLU Simon Builders Hcp) The way he’s ridden, barrier 16 shouldn’t affect him too much.
Horse : Loving Home
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 2, Richmond Club Provincial Stayers Championship Final) He’s just come back from Melbourne. He has a lovely run down there and has a trial since. He’s ready to rock & roll at 2100m.
Horse : Hipparchus
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 2, Richmond Club Provincial Stayers Championship Final) Last start winner, hopefully he’ll appreciate the distance. He’s definitely the one to beat.
Horse : Veladero
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 3, Blakes Marine Claret Stakes) It didn’t look like a great effort 1st up but the jockey was rapped with is effort. The extra distance on Saturday will help him out. Hopefully he’ll be thereabout.
Horse : She’s Clean
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 6, Godolphin Crown) Always go well fresh. Haven’t got a great barrier from barrier 12 but there’s nothing can be done about it.
Horse : Sense And Reason
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 6, Godolphin Crown) Tye Angland will be on board.
Horse : Junoob
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 7, Panthers Hawkesbury Gold Cup) Resuming and 1600m is obviously short of his best. He’ll just go back and hopefully attack the line late.
Horse : Opinion
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 7, Panthers Hawkesbury Gold Cup) Resuming and needs a lot further than this.
Horse : Beaten Up
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 7, Panthers Hawkesbury Gold Cup) Good run 1st up but has drawn very wide.
Horse : Strawberry Boy
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 7, Panthers Hawkesbury Gold Cup) Ran very well at Randwick the other day. Kerrin McEvoy will be back on board.
Horse : Amovatio
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 7, Panthers Hawkesbury Gold Cup) He’ll go back in the field. Rory Hutchings knows the horse well as he galloped the horse on Tuesday.
Horse : Tales Of Grimm
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 7, Panthers Hawkesbury Gold Cup) Ran home strongly in his 1st up run after a long layoff. Hopefully he can build on that again.
Horse : Defrost My Heart
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 9, Fishboy Seafoods Benchmark 77 Hcp) Resuming and needs further. She’s in good order so hopefully she can power through the line late.
Horse : Trafalgar
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 9, Fishboy Seafoods Benchmark 77 Hcp) A last start winner and he should be hard to beat.
Horse : Mackintosh
Message : (Nominated for Saturday, Sydney Race 9, Fishboy Seafoods Benchmark 77 Hcp) First run for the stable. Has been a bit disappointing but hopefully he’ll bounce back in-form.
