Wednesday 12th September 2018
Greyville Polytrack
Race 11 – 12:35
1000m – Barrier Trial
6 – White Cedar
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Ashton Arries
Wgt: 59kg
Draw: 2 (9)
This is being used as a gallop to bring him on, he isn’t quite ready for his first official race for stakes. He has been progressing nicely as mentioned in my previous report and depending on how well he takes this workout, he should be ready soon. He is up against and MR93 (Kingston Boy) and an MR100 (My Pal Al), getting only one KG from them, so it is highly unlikely that he will win this but that is not the objective here.
Race 6 – 16:10
1000m – MR64 Hdcp
8 – Honest Prince
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Ashton Arries
Wgt: 53kg
Draw: 8 (9)
Odds: 5/1
Promising first run back at Scottsville after a short rest, he now heads back to the Greyville poly over the same trip of 1000m. The draw is not too much of a concern as he never really has early speed and prefers to come from slightly off the pace. Ashton Arries is well accustomed to riding him and with that in mind, he will be running on late and we think he has another great each way chance here.
Winning Form comment: HONEST PRINCE is proven on this track and he can build on his improved comeback run at a similar level four weeks ago. The bay entire’ has three lengths to find with the top rating on that showing but will strip fitter and is 1.5kgs better off.
