We have just the two runners to kick off the big meeting at Greyville, on Saturday 18th May 2019. Winter Twilight returns to the coast and looks competitive. Binary Star (pictured), a smart son of Querari has his debut. See more about what to expect here.
Saturday 18th May 2019
Greyville Racecourse
Race 1 – 12:00
1000m – Maiden Plate
1 – Winter Twilight
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Gavin Lerena
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 6(11)
Predicted Betting: 5/1
He has had two recent runs on the Greyville poly and now reverts to the Turf for this run. He gets a useful draw today and the blinkers seem to be getting the best out of him. With Gavin Lerena taking the ride, he must be in with a big chance.
Winning Form Comment: Fair form in two prior starts on poly. Lerena up, include.
7 – Binary Star
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Tristan Godden
Wgt: 57.0kg
Draw: 11(11)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
He is a nice colt, although still immature. We are using this run to rectify the bad habits picked up in his barrier trial, where he was chased up to a handy position. From a wide draw, he will be forced to drop out to the tail of the field and we will be looking to see a strong finish. He is still a few weeks away from being 90-100% tuned up, but he should give a decent account of himself.
