TSR Weekly Wrap | 15 Aug 2023
Some big names on their way back this week.
Act Now is first-up for the season and Petillante returns from a freshen up among five starters we have in the Western Grant Free-For-All at Melton on Saturday night.
Act Now finished off a massive 2022 with a second the Vicbred Super Series 4yo colts/geldings final on New Year’s Eve, having won a Breeders Crown title, two Inter Dominion heats and finishing third in the Inter Dominion final.
We also have The Eureka-bound Encipher, Mach Dan and Hurricane Harley engaged in the feature.
This is the first tests for 4yo mares Encipher and Petillante in open age company at this level.
We also have group 1-winning 3yo trotting filly first-up for the season at Ballarat on Friday night.
Her latest outing was victory in a Breeders Crown final in mid-November.
It was great to salute in two Nutrien Equine Classic finals at Bendigo on on Friday, August 11 - with 3yo trotting filly Tradie Lady and 3yo pacing filly Sweet Bella.
The Lost Storm raced a treat in winning at Melton on Saturday, August 12 - his first start since taking out the Queensland Derby in July.
That’s seven wins in row.
We can’t wait to see him next time out.
