Out of Bernie, Michelle and Crystal I would have Crystal on my horses vs the other two any day of the week. She is night and day better than Bernie and Michelle. -

She is the absolute the worse driver in new Zealand she has zero talent and is only driving because she's Mummy's girl just how long will this last? When will owners wake up that she is the reason there results are not better she has no future as a driver -

Group One-winning sprinter Crocetti is back on track for a tilt at the Gr.1 TAB Telegraph (1200m) at Trentham in a fortnight following a setback earlier this month. The five-year-old gelding, who last raced in the A$5 million The Quokka (1200m) in Perth in April, was making pleasing progress in his build-up over spring, winning his 1100m trial at Te Rapa in September before he was set to head to Pukekohe to tackle the Gr.3 Concorde Stakes (1200m) a fortnight ago. However, the son of Zacinto’s temperature spiked earlier in the week, forcing trainers Danny Walker and Arron Tata to withdraw their charge from his intended first-up assignment. Crocetti quickly recovered and his trainers shifted their sights to the Group and Listed trials at Matamata on Friday to help ready him for Trentham’s feature sprint. In his 1100m heat, he jumped away well under jockey Warren Kennedy and settled in the coveted one-one position. At the 400m mark, Kennedy asked his charge to improve three-wide and he quickly loomed up alongside pacemaker Merchant Queen and Discretion Rules before bounding away to an effortless one length victory under a motionless Kennedy. Owner-breeder Daniel Nakhle was rapt to see his pride and joy in full fettle and ready to tackle next month’s Telegraph. “It is really good to have him back on track,” Nakhle said. “It has been nine months between races, so we are looking forward to Telegraph Day. “He had a nice trial today, he had a little bit of a blow, which he needed. “It was good to have that pipe opener and hopefully have him spot on for the third (of January).” While Nakhle said Crocetti’s withdrawal from his intended first-up run in the Concorde was unfortunate, his gelding’s welfare will always come first, and he is now excited to be marching on towards a feature target. “It was bad timing unfortunately, but that is racing and what is meant to happen is going to happen,” he said. “The main thing is that the horse is alright – you look after the horse and the horse will look after you.” With Crocetti back on track, Nakhle is now hoping the weather can play its part over the coming weeks. “Hopefully we don’t have too much rain between now and then,” he said.

The Chris Waller-trained John Dory contests the Gr.3 Grand Prix Stakes (1800m) at Eagle Farm on Saturday, with the progressive galloper installed a $3 favourite for the three-year-old contest. The son of Ace High broke maiden ranks in November when winning at Canterbury over 1550m and was a game runner-up in the City To Surf 3YO (1600m) at Doomben at his most recent outing, when giving four kilos to winner Nightline whom he meets again on Saturday at set weights. “He is a really nice progressive horse,” Waller said. “I pick out one horse each year to target this race with the view of the horse having a break and then going back up to Queensland for the Derby (Gr.1, 2400m).” The Grand Prix Stakes switched to a December date in 2019 and has proved to be a pointer towards subsequent Queensland Winter Carnival success. In 2021, David Vandyke’s filly Gypsy Goddess won the Grand Prix before going onto claim the 2022 Queensland Oaks, while Waller produced Kovalica to win in 2022 before going on to win the 2023 Queensland Derby. Waller also used the race as a stepping stone for Queensland Derby placegetter Caboche in 2022. “It has worked with good success in the past,” Waller said. “John Dory is a nice middle-distance bred horse. He is a typical New Zealand product that keeps improving and now is the time that you back the New Zealand bred horses to equal up with the Australians and often go ahead. “At his last start, he had a big weight to carry as topweight and had a gap between runs. He will be better for that experience from a fitness perspective and race experience. “Winkers go on on Saturday, just to sharpen him up a little bit. They went very slow last start, so hopefully he will get a more genuine speed, which would be a big help. “We expect him to be fighting out the finish and not just that, come back a better horse in the late autumn.” John Dory is bred and raced by ex-pat Kiwis Cam and Chas Stewart, who are now based on the North Queensland coast at Noosa where they run a successful seafood business. The Stewarts have previously won the Grand Prix Stakes with venerable galloper Order Again. By Rich Hill Stud stallion Ace High, John Dory is out of the winning Pins mare Hirtshals and stems from the family of champion South African filly Petrava. View the full article
