Raced over 1600m at Hollywoodbets Greyville on the turf. Anthony Delpech post-race comment: He was a long way back and I felt he ran on strong. If he was given a chance closer to the pace, he would have had a chance and felt the jockey gave him a very soft ride up the straight.
Peter Muscutt: Blackwhitedynamite still hasn’t brought to the track what he shows at home. In saying that he was way out of his ground early from the deep draw and ran all the way to the line. I think we will stick to the mile but he needs to draw.

The son of What A Winter made his debut over 1200m on the polytrack at Hollywoodbets Greyville today.
