A super week for STAY HUNGRY with four new winners!
On the two-year-old list were colt Phils Boy (bred by P Devereux & R Boldiston) who took a 9m win at Mildura, Start Cheering (Taffy Ltd) at Goulburn, and Gatsby (N Shinn & C O’Dwyer) by a massive 13m at Melton, and of the three-year-olds it was Im Starving (L & J Whish-Wilson) at Bathurst by 7.6m new to the list, and taking his third win by 11m, Decode (A & J O’Connor) at Kilmore. At Plainridge Park in the US, two-year-old filly Stayoutofmylane continued her great form with a 1:53.4 run to claim a $42,000 leg of the Massachusetts Breeders Stake.
CAPTAINTREACHEROUS wasn’t without new winners either – a super impressive 1:55.4 win on debut at Melton for two-year-old colt Catch The Captain (Mildred Malazarte), the first foal from a half-sister to CAPTAIN star, Catch A Wave, and at Goulburn, filly Summer Punch (Michelle Maxwell) put her first run on the board. Keayang Crippa (Marg Lee) snuck tantilisingly close to the $50,000 mark at Mildura.Another leg of the Massachusetts Breeders Stake at Plainridge Park went to his filly Lindy Believer, in 1:52.
