STAY HUNGRY continues his streak with five winners across the week – two-year-old Born To Entertain (bred by Nathan Varcoe) was back at Bathurst, taking his third lifetime win in a track double with three-year-old Swift Code (Medowie) who brought up $50,000 in earnings with the victory. Fellow three-year-old Tryx Vixen (M & T Bull) was back at Shepparton, while the older horses Perfect Playgirl (R Boldiston & the estate of P Devereux) took win #4 at Globe Derby Park and Stay Strong (M McCaffery & C Tobin) took his bank to $20,000.
The ever-reliable CAPTAINTREACHEROUS produced winners and home and abroad – juveniles A Special Occasion (Tardina Stud) in 1:52.7 at Menangle for $70,000 total stakes and Master Louey (Gary Toulmin) at Ballarat for his third win, and four-year-old Captain Groove (Louise Toulmin) at Penrith to reach $84,000.
His filly Lindy Believer took out the $165,000 Massachusetts Breeders Stake 2YO Filly Final in 1:52.4 at Plainridge Park, while the baby colts at Cumberland Run took out $40,000 legs of the Kentucky Sires Stake – Hamilton Hanover (1:51.2) and Bruno Station (1:52.4) – and at Harrah’s Philadelphia, it was an Empire quinella in the $62,000 Liberty Bell with CAPTAIN colt The Tile Guy in 1:50.4 just ahead of STAY HUNGRY’s Hungry Marco.
WESTERN TERROR took a treble (Blue Cannon, Hes A Terror & Major Mickey) as did BETTING LINE (Credulous, Are Weasley & Might And Victory), with winners for both FOUR STARZZZ SHARK (My Atlantis) and TALL DARK STRANGER (Just Keep Chiming).
