Ballarat played true to form today and favoured on pace on fence runners the majority of the day.
Kitz Lane was most impressive. He will be placed in our Horse To Follow file as he is a potential Group winner. He is by Pentire and a distance of 2400m is right up his alley, so he will be even better in his second and third preparations. Keep following him
Count To Zero defied the normal bias at Ballarat, sat wide, came from well back and won as he liked. Robbie Griffiths has this horse firing and a win in town is not too far away.
Danny Brereton rode a terrific race to win the Cup on Rubijon. Gave the horse a beautiful run in transit, manouvered a passage through the field on straightening, giving Rubijon every opportunity to show his best, which he did. Congratualations to Danny, the best ride won the Cup.
At Hawkesbury today, they ran the prelude to their big Cup meeting in early December. The race was won by the Guy Walter trained Lantwin, who led all the way to win comfortably. Although looking impressive, I doubt Lantwin can win the Cup or the upcoming Villiers Stakes at Royal Randwick. He was getting pretty tired at the end of the 1400m today, and 1600m will be a big test at Hawkesbury, and even more so at Randwick. Friday Creek would give all those who started today a quick short back and sides, I feel sure.
Hope all our readers had a little something on Kitz Lane, and we finished on the right side of the leger at days end.
