Future Score finished over the top of a strong field to win the Cranbourne Cup
The Matt Cumani trained Future Score has taken out the $400,000 Cranbourne Cup on Sunday.
Future Score came from near the rear of the field to finish over the top of the field in the feature event at Cranbourne giving his trainer and jockey Fred Kersley their first wins in the race.
“We had aimed to go into the race third-up but it ended up being second-up, but he came here in terrific order and I think he’ll improve again next start,” Cumani said.
The lightly raced galloper will now target the Lexus Stakes on Derby Day with the hope of getting into the Melbourne Cup field.
“Obviously the dream is to sneak into the Melbourne Cup, but let’s hope we can win the Lexus first,” he said.
