    The Queensland Oaks has been turned on its head with the scratching of favourite Fireburn.

The 2022 Golden Slipper winner was ruled out on Thursday… Read More »

     
  • Esti Feny to get campaign back on track

    Trainer Matt Smith’s hopes of taking Esti Feny to Queensland for the rich Q22 have been all but dashed by a setback, but he is hoping to at least get the horse’s campaign back up and running at Rosehill. The Hungarian-bred gelding broke through for his first Australian win in the… Read More »

     
  • Ranveer right for Flemington assault

    Trainer Matt Laurie concedes the career of Ranveer is likely to be ‘another one of those stories’, the one of a promising horse that did not quite reach his potential. But Laurie has not given up hope of Ranveer reaching a higher grade than the VRC & GFA Partnership Sprint (1100m), a benchmark 70 race the gelding runs in at… Read More »

     
  • Sunsource to shape his spring at Flemington

    The first week of winter is possibly not the time to see a two-year-old starting his campaign that could shape their spring. Normally the two-year-olds with spring aspirations are in Brisbane before a short break in the winter sun or just about to return to work after an autumn carnival campaign. For Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young,… Read More »

     
  • Adam Hyeronimus back in the Sydney fray

    Adam Hyeronimus will return to Saturday metropolitan racing for the first time in more than two-and-a-half years when he heads to Rosehill for six rides. The Group 1-winning jockey hasn’t ridden in town since September 2020 after being banned over betting offences. Returning to trackwork in December, his comeback was delayed… Read More »

     
  • Golden Slipper winner in rare Classic bid

    As a Golden Slipper winner, Fireburn has already achieved more than most horses. As an eight-time Group 1-winning trainer, Gary Portelli is even more accomplished. But there would be few more satisfying achievements for the Warwick Farm horseman than winning Saturday’s Queensland Oaks (2200m) with his 2022 Golden Slipper winner. Not only… Read More »

     
  • Katherine Coleman to train in partnership with Peter Moody

    Katherine Coleman is on the cusp of her ‘dream come true’ as she sets to join Peter Moody as a co-trainer for the upcoming racing season starting August 1.

  • Spirit Ridge fit for Winter Cup task

    It is a training method more commonly used in Europe, but Annabel Neasham has no qualms extending Spirit Ridge to 2400-metres second-up in the Listed Winter Cup at Rosehill. The seasoned campaigner resumed with a solid sixth to stablemate Bois D’Argent in the Lord Mayor’s Cup (2000m) and steps straight up to a… Read More »

     
  • Party back for second shot

    Party For One will not have everything in her favour as she did when breaking through recently for a long overdue at Flemington.

  • Laid back Acierto lands Mornington win

    Three horse races are never easy to win as Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young found out with Acierto at Mornington. After scratchings reduced the Vic By The Jug Handicap (1500m) from six horses to three on Wednesday, it was considered a two-horse race between the $1.60 favourite Unowho and Acierto ($2.90) with Delure ($7) the outsider of the trip. Delure, ridden by Craig Newitt, was able… Read More »

  • Landsborough Lad looking to break maiden at Doomben

    Trainer David Vandyke has tasted success at the highest level, but a mere Maiden win at Doomben on Wednesday … should it arrive in the third race on the card … could be quite an emotional result in its own right for the stable. Don’t expect that emotion to be… Read More »

     
  • Winx’s half-sister set for Geelong debut

    City Of Lights, the half-sister to the esteemed four-time Cox Plate champion Winx, is poised to make her debut at Geelong this Sunday.

  • So Dazzling to bounce back in Queensland Oaks

    Trainer John Sargent is expecting So Dazzling to turn around her form when she returns to Brisbane for the Queensland Oaks. So Dazzling produced a less than flattering performance when finishing in the second half of the field in the Group 3 Rough Habit Plate (2000m) at Doomben on May 13. That effort followed a one-and-three-quarter length… Read More »
