Skyway Star and Ammoudi Bay returned from their breaks in fine fashion both winning at Terang on Tuesday.
Skyway Star was sent out a short priced favourite after scratchings came through earlier that morning.
Although we were confident that she would run well, the 1600m is short of her best trip after placing in stakes grade over 2500m last campaign.
Not only was she running over an unsuitable trip, she had to carry the top weight of 61.5kg but in the end she was too smart for her opposition.
We were pleased to get a win with her so early in the prep and hopefully she will progress to some better staying races this time in.
Ammoudi Bay won the final race on the card and was impressive in doing so.
He seems to appreciate the bigger track and long straight at Terang as he has now had two starts for two wins at this track and distance.
Last preparation he was very green and hadn’t quiet learnt his craft as a racehorse. Although still green yesterday and wanting to do a couple of things wrong sore a more furnished racehorse.
Congratulations to our winning connections.
