PAYROLL, our 4yr Old Not a Single Doubt Mare has resumed her preparation this time in on the right track. Her first up run was at Cranbourne over 1400m where she stormed home by over 7L, next up she went to Moonee Valley in a BM84 where the track didn’t suit to run 4th, she did however cover the most ground and had the fastest time in the race so we are not disappointed in the run at all. Going forward she will run on the 27th at Flemington then will be aimed at the 2017 Magic Millions Race on the Gold Coast.
The Biggest Race of the Year in Tasmania is the Group 3, 2200m Hobart Cup worth $225,000 and both Ashlee Marie and Refectory are nominated for the race next year. Both horses have just begun their preparations this time in and they are both looking great. Last preparation REFECTORY won 2 races and ran a 3rd in his last three starts, his last win was at Moonee Valley in a BM96 over 2500m beating the Darren Weir trained Black Tomahawk by 0.75L.
