TSR Weekly Wrap | 20 Sep 2021
Satisfying to get a metropolitan treble on our home track on Saturday as we build to some classics and major feature races.
Ladies In Red caught the eye with her all-the-way win, but there was also a lot to like about Tough Tilly first-up.
They are part of a strong bank of 3yo fillies we have heading towards the Victoria Oaks, with heats scheduled for October 2 and the $150,000 final a week later.
Beach Music is another headed in that direction after resuming on a winning note at Maryborough earlier in the week.
