September 24th, 2023
Raced over 1900m at Hollywoodbets Greyville on the turf. Finished 4th out of 12 runners.
Anthony Delpech post-race comment: The pace of the race didn’t suit him as they went slow and then sprinted up the straight. He is a big horse that needs a good gallop in a race to suit him. It wasn’t a bad run considering.
