| Date | Venue | Heat | Horse |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dec 11 | Scone | H1 | Sobek |
| Dec 12 | Murwillumbah | H1 | Brutal Miss |
| Dec 15 | Hawkesbury | H9 | Steel Will |
Sobek - Scott Singleton (Ella Drew)
Scone H1 900m – Dec 11
Back-to-back eye-catching trials by this 3yo gelding. Hope he doesn’t go to HK. The latest was in very slick time as he extended away sharply. From the right stable to win first-up and looks ready to go to the races now.
Brutal Miss - Matthew Dunn (Brandon Lerena)
Murwillumbah H1 1010m – Dec 12
Impressive first trial by this 3yo filly. She showed good tactical speed and from there kept up a strong gallop through the line. Look for a second trial.
Steel Will - Chris Waller (Zac Lloyd)
Hawkesbury H9 800m – Dec 15
Loved this debut trial by this blue-blood colt, a half to Steel City, September Run and Pittsburgh Flyer. He stalked the leader wherever he went before popping off his back and going right on by and through the line. Fastest of the 800m heats too. Keen to see his second trial.
