Travel restraints prevented Zed’s Cup double up

NZRacingDesk

Zed may well have had two runners in this year’s Gr.1 Melbourne Cup (3200m) had it not been for the current complications of trans-Tasman travel. His daughter Verry Elleegant (NZ) confirmed her champion status with a resounding victory on Tuesday, while the Flemington feature had also been on the radar of Grangewilliam Stud stallion’s promising son Beaudz Well (NZ). New Plymouth trainer John Wheeler had been keen on a Victorian venture for his highly regarded five-year-old, but travel restrictions forced him to ditch that plan. “I brought him back into…

Trained by Anthony and Sam Freedman, Elusive Express has shown ability from the start. She won her only juvenile start last June at Cranbourne and then returned to finish second on a heavy track at Bendigo. She was then asked to take on…

Spirit of Gaylard adds to Kiwi dominance

NZRacingDesk

Just two races after Verry Elleegant’s (NZ) (Zed) dominant Gr.1 Melbourne Cup (3200m) victory, fellow New Zealand-bred Spirit of Gaylard (NZ) (Puissance De Lune) continued the Kiwi flavour at Flemington when taking out the Listed TAB Trophy (1800m). The three-year-old son of Puissance De Lune failed to gain a place in last Saturday’s Gr.1 Victoria Derby (2500m), but a stakes win just three days later was a pleasing result for trainer Mitchell Freedman. While thrilled with the win, Freedman said his colt still has plenty to learn. “He’s probably not…
