Race 3 WAITOMO FUELS MAIDEN 1400m ROAR OF THE JUNGLE (M McNab) – Trainer Mr. K Pertab reported to Stewards, that upon return to the stable, the gelding underwent a veterinary exanimation which included blood tests, with no abnormalities being detected.

Race 4 MCMILLAN ACCOUNTANTS 1560m BALLISTIC MISS (G Rooke) – Trainer Mr. S Marsh reported to Stewards, he was satisfied with the post-race condition of the filly, however, BALLISTIC MISS has been sent for a brief freshen up.

Brazilian hoop Bruno Queiroz was airborne in the tangerine silks of Te Akau Racing at Riccarton’s synthetic meeting on Wednesday, guiding two of the stable’s runners to success and another to a narrow placing. The double emulated his effort on the previous day at Otaki, where he piloted Testing (NZ) (Time Test) and He’s All Fabulous (NZ) (Fabulous) to victory across the rescheduled card, before heading south with a big book of rides. His Riccarton brace commenced in the Speight’s Summit Ultra On Tap Maiden (1600m) where odds-on favourite Purple Prose (NZ) (Embellish) was tasked with running down the $201 outsider New Beginning (NZ) (Vespa), who looked to have a winning break on his rivals in the straight. In a perfectly-timed run, Queiroz wound up on the outside aboard Purple Prose and caught New Beginning just short of the line, a satisfying result for trainers Mark Walker and Sam Bergerson. “It was a good effort to win from that far back and a lovely ride of Bruno’s,” Walker said. “With his experience beforehand in Singapore, (Bruno) rides the polytracks so well and has a real confidence about him on the synthetic surfaces. “Purple Prose has the breeding to get over more distance, being a half-brother to our good staying mare Elegant Lady (NZ) (Highly Recommended), and he’ll keep improving with more time and maturity.” A couple of races later, it was the turn of Queen Of Naples (NZ) (Darci Brahma), who was shooting for a repeat performance after a dominant maiden win at the course last month. Starting as the second-elect in the Red Nose Raceday – 24 July Three-Year-Old (1400m), Queiroz looked to find cover early aboard the daughter of Darci Brahma, but with no leader emerging from the field, he took matters into his own hands and dictated the tempo up-front. The filly was travelling strongly into the straight, and once she kicked clear, she was never in doubt, holding out a strong finish from race-favourite Wanderin Spelle (NZ) (Wyndspelle) to score by 3–¾ lengths. Queiroz was duly impressed with Queen Of Naples and is enjoying life in New Zealand after relocating to the country in autumn. “I was confident because her last win was very, very, easy, and today, this field did not have pace,” he said. “I had instructions to keep her happy and she was travelling very well. I waited until the straight, and in the last 200m, she was flying home. “I am very happy here, love this country, and with my manager Andre Neill, we are getting plenty of support and opportunities. I’m happy to enjoy my work here and enjoy the moment.” It looked that Queiroz may have completed the treble in the last, with a long wait for a photo finish between his mount, Rule Of Law, and Delmonico, but the result went the way of the Andrew Carston-trained runner.

Local gelding Zoulander (NZ) (Zoustar) belied his odds once more when scoring his second consecutive victory on Riccarton’s synthetic track on Wednesday. Despite winning over 1400m on the surface last month, he was unwanted by punters in the Join TAB Racing Club Rating 75 (1400m), jumping a $26.40 outsider. The seven-year-old gelding was slow out of the gates, but he quickly regained the deficit and apprentice jockey Floor Moerman elected to push forward on the fence to sit in the trail. Pacemaker Doubtful Sound (Not A Single Doubt) kicked clear at the turn and Moerman was seeking to find clear running room for her charge, which she found with 250m to go and Zoulander was able to reel in the leaders to win by a head over Sorcha (NZ) (Burgundy), with a further neck back to Doubtful Sound in third. “He missed the kick, or maybe I missed the kick on him, but he got back to them pretty quickly and then he travelled really well all the way,” Moerman said. “As soon as I got clean air, he was really wonderful. He is lovely to ride.” While his victory may have surprised punters it didn’t surprise his handlers, who have now set their sights on the $100,000 Polytrack Championship (1200m) at Riccarton on August 6. “On his day he tries hard, and his work has been just as good, if not better, since that last start,” Matthew Pitman said. “We said to Floor before the race to ride him for a bit of luck and put him in a dogfight, and you know once he gets into that dogfight he usually comes out on top. She rode him well. “He will be eligible for the $100,000 race on the poly in the middle of the National Week. That will be a great race for him to target, and in the form he is currently in he wouldn’t be without a chance.” A race later, the Pitmans were back in the winner’s circle welcoming back Ocean Light (NZ) (Ocean Park) following his long head victory in the Cup Week Hospitality On Sale Now Rating 75 (2200m). The four-year-old son of Ocean Park is also set to return to the track during the Grand National Festival of Racing next month, with the Gr.3 New Zealand Cup (3200m) being his ultimate aim in November. “He is a very good horse and I was very pleased with how he was ridden today. He is a better horse when he is left behind the speed,” Michael Pitman said. “There is a nice race for him on the middle day (of the Grand National carnival) on the poly. The poly has got its place, it suits certain horses, and he is one of the ones it does suit. He will then be probably set for the New Zealand Cup.” Earlier on the card, Cape Horn (All Too Hard) broke through for his maiden victory in the Herman’s Hermits 2 August Christchurch Maiden (1200m) at his third career start, and kicked off what would become a winning treble for his trainers, who now sit on 36 wins for the season.

Apprentice jockey Triston Moodley is on the mend in Hamilton Hospital following an incident at the Waipa trials on Tuesday. The 23-year-old hoop was kicked in the head in the mounting yard at the Te Awamutu track and he was airlifted to Waikato Hospital where he underwent surgery last night. Moodley is apprenticed to Byerley Park trainer Danny Walker, who has been by his bedside and reported that he has come through the surgery well. “He got kicked in the head yesterday at the trials, he is in Hamilton Hospital, and he had surgery last night and had a plate put in,” Walker said. “It was quite a long operation, but he has come through it well. “They did a scan today and they are reasonably happy. They said there is a little bit of blood there, but it should dissolve. “They will do another scan tomorrow and continue to monitor him. “He is very drowsy and tired after a big surgery. It will just be a long resting period for him at the moment to recuperate.” Walker said the doctors haven’t given a prognosis on how long they expect Moodley will be out of the saddle, and Walker said he is thankful the outcome wasn’t worse. “It is very thankful that he had his skull cap on,” Walker said. “It could have been anybody walking out in the parade ring that got kicked, but it just happened to be him, it is just one of those unfortunate things. “They haven’t given a prognosis on how long he will be out, but he will be out for a couple of months at least. “He is very unlucky, but lucky.” Moodley was enjoying his best season to date with 52 victories, 12 more than last season, highlighted by his first stakes victory aboard the Erin Hocquard-trained Spencer in the Gr.3 Spring Sprint (1400m) at Te Rapa last October.
