Veteran Pacer Steel the show (Gamblers pleasure) will put an end to a ten-month drought and score a first-up Harness Racing victory by proving too quickly for the opposition in the $ 31,000 WATA members Sprint on Friday evening about 1730m in Gloucester Park.
Steel the show, prepared by champion trainers Greg and Skye Bond, will start with the valued No. 1 barrier under the preferential barrier queues, and Star Driver Deni Roberts plans to set the pace.
“It is a good attraction over the mile; he has a good gate speed and I would say that we will fully benefit from the draw,” said Roberts. “He is a good sprinter and his work has been very good. He doesn’t work too much on the track at home where he is more a Galoper on the sand.”
Steel The Show, an eight-year-old gelding by champion Sire Bettor’s Delight, collected $ 431.084 in Prizemoney, after he won six races in New Zealand and ten in Wa (all in Gloucester Park) and revealed his class in the end of the fourth racer park in the Null3.
Adding interest in the race on Friday evening is the return to action by brilliant four -year -old mare Water Lou, which will resume after an absence of ten weeks.
Water Lou is trained by Mike Reed and has won 21 times from 34 Starts for deployment of $ 440,972. She still has to win as a four -year -old, with her six starts this year and produces a second and two third placements.
She is one of the three runners in the race, where Shannon Suvaljko chooses to drive her in preference at her stablemates Hoppys Way and Blitzembye, with the trio signed from the three back line position.
“Water Lou has the job for her of barrier twelve for a mile,” said Reed. “I am happy with the way she works, and my main goal with her is the $ 100,000 Westbred Classic for four -year -old Mares next week. Whatever she is doing this week, she will improve.”
Arma Xfactor (Barrier Seven) and Magnus Victor (six) have a sound spot perspectives, with the Colin Brown-Train Arma Xfactor that knocks on the door for his 16th victory after wonderful efforts on the last two Friday evening hard work in the breeze of the fire.
Reed and Suvaljko will also join forces when the four-year-old Stablemate Lion Queen of Water Lou starts from the outside of eight in the $ 23,000 Anne Gartrell member since 2025 Tempo over 2130m.
Lion Queen has won at eight of her 21 starts and is on goal to dispute the Rich Westbred event the following Friday evening. “This is a difficult draw for her, and I am not sure if I should continue or go back (in the beginning),” said Reed. “I would say that it is most likely that we will come out with her. She works well.”
Reed also has sound claims with Lion Queen’s Stablemate, five -year -old Heez Good as Gold, who is favorably drawn at Barrier One and is powered by Emily Suvaljko.
Heez Good as Gold, powered by Shannon Suvaljko, started from the number 1 barrier in an event of 1730 meters last Friday week when he set the pace and held it to win by a head of the fast finishing tantabiddi, rating 1.55.8.
ACE Trainer-Reinsman Aiden The Campo has two runners in this event in which he has chosen to control four-year-old ideal muscles of Barrier Six instead of winner Cold Hard Cash, who will be governed by Joey Suvaljko of Barrier Five.
“Ideal muscle is falling a long way in the classroom,” said the Campo. “He was probably just good in his last few starts, and I hope he can return to form.
“Cold hard money was good on his return (racing for the first place three months when he won with a head of Flyin Disco). I thought he should have won a little easier, but he pulled and wanted to get up the track. I expect him to improve.”
Nobody will be busier in Gloucester Park on Friday evening than the Campo, which will ride in all ten events and will be the trainer of seven horses.
He will certainly have a huge following when he manages Maddy Lou, Mydadtheterror, Codenaam Marcus, Magnus Victor, Gauccrasher, Dame Valor, Rock Me, Copt Cat Queen, Ideal Muscle and Tubbs Farquhar.
