Another busy day for the stable at Bunbury on Thursday. The team performed well, and finished up the day with a winner, two very close 2nds – SATELLITE CITY and RAGTRADER - and two promising 4ths, FULL REIGN and PURSE SNATCHER.
Our winner was the much-improved LE SACRE, who completed a hat-trick of successive wins when he took out the Rossiter Painting Contractors Handicap over 1100 metres.>>Read More
We had one fancied runner at Bunbury’s New Year’s Day meeting, and she duly won! HEY BLONDIE, who is in red-hot form this prep, was made a short-priced favourite for the 81% Weekly Readership Handicap, over 1400 metres. It was a very competitive field which set off at a cracking pace, led by Danzmait. Troy Turner settled HEY BLONDIE in 5th place on the rails, where she remained until>>Read More
The stable’s winning run continued with another double at Bunbury on Thursday.
After SATELLITE CITY had run 3rd in the first race of the day, PURSE SNATCHER was well fancied for the Geographe Civil Maiden over 1200 metres.

Our second winner came in the feature race of the day, the Troy Gard Memorial Handicap over 1100 metres. LE SACRE was a well-fancied favourite after his recent Narrogin win.

We had only one runner at Ascot on Wednesday – DU PRINTEMPS in the perthracing.com.au Handicap over 1200 metres. The Oratorio gelding was unfancied in the betting, behind warm favourite Catalantic. After exiting the barriers, Jason Whiting positioned DU PRINTEMPS in 4th place on the rails, just off the pace. He patiently waited until a gap opened up at the 200 metre mark, and pushed the horse>>Read More
The stable made a rare visit to Narrogin on Saturday, and was rewarded with success in the Healthway Healthy Handicap over 1190 metres. LE SACRE, under a very patient ride from apprentice Alex Hearn, had far too much fire power for his rivals, coming from 9th on the turn to sprint home for a 1 1/2 length win. At Bunbury on Sunday we only had two runners, and managed a 3rd and a win. RIVERBEND COWBOY>>Read More

As the field entered the short Ascot straight Night War appeared to have the race at her mercy, but Troy angled his mount out to>>Read More

In the second race of the meeting, the United Crane Hire Picton Depot Maiden over 1200 metres, LOUISIANA LADY was unfancied after her luckless run last time out.
