RACE 6: 1:52 pm 136TH GRANT PLUMBING WELLINGTON STEEPLECHASE - OPN STP 4900m - $100,000
No.6 - Barrier 1 - Jockey: Bradley Rantall 👲 65kgs
"A slight change of plan will see Albert take his place in the time-honoured $100,000 Wellington Steeplechase for his second jumping start this season instead. We were planning to give him another run over the hurdles. However, with a massive 18 nominations for the maiden hurdle and a lack of entries for the Wellington Steeplechase, we decided to help the club out with starting numbers. It is probably fair to say he is better suited to these bigger fences, but we think a maiden hurdle is still within his grasp. This could see him contest a mix of both disciplines this season. Time will tell, but at this point, it is one race at a time. For this start, we wish Bradley Rantall and Albert all the best in the feature race on Saturday!"

Diva will contest Race 3 at Woodville this Friday over 1400m. Our original plan was to step her up to 1600m for this start. However, the Central District calendar did not provide a suitable option. Because it has now been just over a month since her last run, we have no choice to remain at the 1400m distance. Leading Matamata apprentice Hayley Hassman is making the trip down to Woodville to reunite with the mare. Hayley partnered Diva in her only ride aboard her last preparation, finishing a close second at Te Aroha. Best of luck to Hayley and Diva. 🤞🤞

💥RACING RESULT: HEY HEY HEY : 🏇 3RD 🥇
Our stable veteran, Hey Hey Hey, produced an eye-catching performance to finish third after coming from the rear of the field in the opening hurdle race at Trentham today. Ridden patiently by new replacement rider Bradley Rantall, he has kicked off his winter jumping campaign in good fashion over the smaller fences. While a win proved just out of reach today, this maiden hurdle assignment was intended as a seasonal launching pad, with the primary long-term objectives for the veteran lying over the larger fences later this winter steeplechase season. After today's effort, a win in a maiden hurdle may not be out of reach either! 🤔 Good Effort Albert! ❤️

The nine-year-old , affectionately known in the stable as Fat Albert, lines up in the $20,000 Maiden Hurdle over 2500 metres. Wednesday's hurdle assignment serves as a launching pad for the season.

Diva returns to the races this Saturday at Otaki after her close-up fourth placing two weeks ago at Woodville. This being her second-up run is our only concern, as she has drawn well, the track forecast is good, and apprentice Toni Davies, who rode her so well fresh up, claims 2kg off her back." So there are some positives for a another competitive run this weekend. 🤞🍀

Albert also returns this Saturday for another flat-race fitness run before targeting some feature races this jumping season. He is racing well out of his grade, so we will be happy if he just keeps up and stoked if he can pass one. 🤣 Toni Davies is back aboard, claiming 2kg and reducing Albert's weight down to 52kg. 🤞🍀

It's all go this week on the racing front. Albert is also back, gearing up for another successful jumping campaign this up coming season. He kicks off his preparation this Sunday with a run on the flat over 2050m at Tauherenikau. A nice starting point with bigger targets over fences on his agenda. We’re pleased to have apprentice Toni Davies back in the saddle for Westridge Racing after she rode Button Ya Lip with merit at Woodville on Wednesday.. Toni claims 2kgs reducing Alberts carded weight down to 53kg.

Diva returned to the races today at Woodville, delivering a meritorious performance fresh. After a long layoff, we were very happy with her effort. Ridden well by apprentice Toni Davies, Toni settled Diva beautifully beyond midfield from her wide draw. She improved approaching the turn but copped a little knock early in the straight. But once balanced up, she flashed home late to finish a close up 4th. Overall, it was a very encouraging run to build on.

After a 10-month hiatus, Diva returns to the races this Wednesday at Woodville. She looks to have returned a much stronger mare this time in so we are hopeful she can find that elusive maiden win at some stage this season, after multiple second placings last prep. This run will give us an indication of her fitness level as apprentice Toni Davies takes the reins on Diva for her fresh up run claiming 2kgs.
