There was no text message circulating but another star has been unearthed at the mid week races in Victoria.
The Mike Moroney trained Bermadez had plenty of hype around for it in lead up to his debut at Geelong on Friday and that hype was justified with the horse winning very impressively by a big margin.
Bermadez jumped as the odds on favourite with Sportsbet after being backed heavily throughout betting after opening at $2.50 and it was a painless watch for his backers.
The son of Tavistock was a $280,000 purchase from New Zealand’s Karaka sale.
