Maiden Of The Week

Charge (AUS) 2 c Zoustar – Queen Of The Falls by General Nediym

Despite failing to get his head in front as a juvenile, the Chris Waller-trained Charge showed a great deal of promise in his first four starts, most notably when finishing second on his last outing to Godolphin’s Gododdin at Kensington in April.

Osorno (AUS) 2 c Exceed And Excel – Antillanca by Street Cry

Osorno justified 3-1 favouritism to score an impressive first-up win in 1200 metre juvenile sprint at Warwick Farm on Wednesday – his first success in six starts to date.

He was quickest away from barrier two and ridden to lead but was given no peace in front, holding... Read More

Seas No Limit (NZ) 3 g Ocean Park – Boundless by Van Nistelrooy

The three-year-old gelding sat back of midfield, one off the fence for most of the journey and appeared... Read More
