Lyle Hewitson and James Orman have been two of the surprise packages of the season and the pair have some excellent chances to keep their respective runs going at Sha Tin on Sunday. Hewitson sits on 15 winners for the season and he will rely on Akashvani to add another win to his tally when he runs in the fiercely competitive Class Three Stanley Gap Handicap (1,400m). In a race that will shape the Classic Mile conversation, he takes on the the likes of Helene Supafeeling and Circuit Grand Slam...View the full article -

A long-range plan came to fruition for trainer Matthew Dale at Wyong on Saturday with No Drama’s (NZ) (Ghibellines) victory in the A$160,000 Central Coast Community News Benchmark 78 Handicap (1200m). It was the seventh win of a 26-start career for the Ghibellines gelding, who has also picked up four minor placings and has earned A$302,092 in stakes. Four of those successes have come from just six attempts over the 1200m distance of Saturday’s race. Dale took over the training of No Drama from Lindsey Smith in 2024, and he has now guided the horse to four wins and two placings from 13 starts. The Goulburn trainer has taken note of No Drama’s affinity for a certain type of racecourse, which led him to identify the Wyong fixture as an ideal chance to shoot for a Saturday prize. “We found this race on a Saturday because for such a big horse, he likes tight turning tracks,” Dale said. “He has won a couple at Canterbury for me, and at The Valley before I got him, so to get a stand-alone meeting on a tight track, during the off-season, it was a perfect set-up to roll the dice and have a crack at a Saturday race with him again.” No Drama did all of the hard work behind tearaway leader Mogo Magic (Duporth), sitting in second place throughout and leading the chasers into the straight. Jockey Josh Parr set his sights on the front-runner and No Drama began to gain ground, finishing over the top of Mogo Magic late in the piece to win by half a length. “He loves tight, turning tracks, which is strange for a big horse,” Parr said. “They had him primed today and it was a good effort.” Dale was delighted with the six-year-old’s performance, which came in his first raceday start since August 6. “It was a good result,” he said. “He has been a horse that is a genuine, free-rolling, on speed and tough horse.” No Drama was bred by White Robe Lodge’s Brian and Lorraine Anderton and is the sixth winner from just over a dozen starters in Australia this season from the stud’s former headline stallion Ghibellines, whose untimely death was announced on Boxing Day. No Drama is a full-brother to Live Drama (NZ) (Ghibellines), the winner of nine races including the Gr.3 South Island Thoroughbred Breeders’ Stakes (1600m) and Listed Great Easter Stakes (1400m). Their dam is the unraced Pure Theatre mare Sheeza Drama. Live Drama’s trainer Lance Robinson saddled No Drama for a debut win at Riccarton as a two-year-old in January of 2022 before he was sold across the Tasman. View the full article -

The in-form combination of rider Floor Moerman and trainer Kevin Myers delivered in spades once again on the West Coast circuit as quality mare Bozo (NZ) (Satono Aladdin) produced a mammoth staying performance to claim the time-honoured Vernon & Vazey 0800 Truck Parts Kumara Gold Nuggets (1810m) on Saturday. Moerman, who had tasted success aboard Illicit Dreams (NZ) (Vancouver) for Kenny Rae earlier in the day, had produced winning trebles at both the Omoto meeting on 3 January and at Reefton four days later, with the Omoto victories coming aboard Myers-trained runners. Myers has a long history of supporting West Coast racing and he didn’t disappoint in the day’s feature, lining up three strong contenders in race favourite Sunset Boulevard (NZ) (Eminent) ($2.60), Kick On (NZ) (Per Incanto) ($6.50) and 2025 Gr.3 New Zealand Cup (3200m) winner Bozo ($3.60). Sunset Boulevard looked set for victory when rider Tina Comignaghi pushed the go button from outside pacemaker Shaking Stevens (NZ) (American Pharoah) at the 700m and applied enormous pressure to his rivals, shooting three lengths clear turning for home. Moerman and Bozo had been content to settle in midfield early on but got shunted four wide as Sunset Boulevard made his bid for glory and looked to be running for minor money as she struggled to make an impression on her stablemate in the early stages of the home straight. Moerman kept at her and when the turbo kicked in the daughter of Satono Aladdin simply flew over the final 100m to storm to a half-length victory from the late closing In Vegas (NZ) (Telperion) and Iffididit (NZ) (Iffraaj). Stable representative Luke Myers was all smiles as he reiterated the stable’s desire to support racing in the region. “Every time she has come down South she has picked up a win and it is great winning these Cups, as we have had a lot of luck with these colours” Myers said. “She (Moerman) is an apprentice on the rise as we told her to make sure she had clear air and she popped off the rail and down the back she had her (Bozo) in the right spot to chase Sunset (Boulevard). “This is a special Carnival and all these tracks put on a fantastic spectacle so long may it continue.” Moerman was worried at different stages of the race but once the mare kicked into gear she knew she was on a winner. “That was really cool and she had to do it the tough way as we were four wide, but I saw Sunset was in front and I knew he would kick away and be hard to beat,” she said. “I just had to keep her going and while she felt a bit flat on the turn, when we straightened up she was just too tough.” Bozo races in the colours of the Australian-based Hill family who also owned the talented sprinter-miler Scapolo (NZ) (Bachelor Duke) who won 20 races from the Myers stable including the Gr.2, Coupland’s Bakeries Mile (1600m), the Gr.3 Sweynesse Stakes (1215m) and the Gr.3 Canterbury Gold Cup (2000m), while he was also placed on 13 separate occasions at stakes level.
