The HDR stable has two runners today in ROCK DEE JAY and BRUNGLE BERTIE at Ararat.
Ararat – Soft(6)
At the latest track update it has come up a Soft6 and with heavy rain scheduled for the Ararat area, if that arrives during the meeting then this could be downgraded quickly.
Race 4 (2:45 pm) Harvey Norman Ararat Maiden Plate 1300m
No.9 ROCK DEE JAY– Michael Poy (Barrier 9)
ROCK DEE JAY (9) heads to Ararat on Friday where he’ll contest a 1300m Maiden (Race 4, 2:45pm). The 3yo son of Awesome Rock has drawn gate nine and Michael Poy will ride.
After eight scratchings in the race ROCK DEE JAY now will jump from gate nine of ten, which with the initial draw of 14 the stable had a big query on the run. Hopefully in the run, the 3yo Gelding can follow both of the favourites who will jump from inside us so therefore trail them into the race early, ride him quietly and be hitting the line strongly. (Stable)
TAB WIN Fixed Odds – $23 (as of 1pm)
Race 6 (4:00 pm) Ararat Farm Supplies BM58 Handicap 2000m
No.4 BRUNGLE BERTIER– Melissa Julius (Barrier 5)
BRUNGLE BERTIE (5) heads to Ararat as well where he’ll contest a 2000m BM58 (Race 6, 4:00 pm). The son of CANFORD has drawn gate five and Melissa Julius rides.
BRUNGLE BERTIE is kicking off his campaign over the 2000m at Ararat over the 2000m where they will be to slick for him but will be looking for this run to quickstart the preparation. he looks well and should be winning later in the campaign. (Stable)
