Not only does racing return to Canterbury on Wednesday, but so does Darley’s more than capable 3yo filly Quidnunc.
In her first prep she ran third to Obsequious and More Strawberries on debut followed by a close second on the Kensington track to Tom’s Choice before being sent for a spell.
She then returned in great order beating the David Payne trained Sea Lord first up here at Canterbury. More recently, Peter Snowden tuned her up for a first up tilt with an effortless trial win at Warwick Farm in late February winning by 1.4L.
The field on Wednesday doesn’t look overly strong and there’s no doubt this filly will be racing in much better class over the Sydney Carnival.
Another horse making their return to the track is the Bart Cumming’s 3yo daughter of God’s Own, Dreamcoat. She impressed in her first prep, running third to Beneteau on debut then being slightly disappointing as favourite behind Butt I’m Ready. She continued to run well in her second prep, running into the more than capable Palomares on more than one occasion.
She comes off the back of a nice trial and Corey Brown sticks with her. She’s one to follow first up in race five.
