TSR Weekly Wrap | 10 April 2023
What an extended time our team has had in Tasmania.
Another four wins at Launceston on Saturday night, giving the stable 25 (13 at Hobart - 12 at Launceston) for the season in Tassie to sit second on the state’s training premiership.
Our quartet included first starter Renewal, a 2yo filly by American Ideal, and out Someone To Love.
This gives Kabbalah Karen B her first winner as a grandam, as the dam of seven fillies there’s a lot more to come.
And what a job Major Grace has done in Tasmania.
Five starts for five wins, giving her six from six in Australia since arriving from NZ.
Bay Of Biscay was another first-starter to win for us at Melton, with the 2yo colt by Somebeachsomewhere being the first winner out of smart raceme Nike Franco.
Then there was another big performance by 4yo mare Soho Historia, winning the $100,000 Riverina Championships Mares Final at Wagga.
