Immediacy returned to winning form on Saturday, with the Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young-trained four-year-old powering home in the Enchanted Adventure Handicap (2000m) at Mornington. (Photo: Bruno Cannatelli) The Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young-trained four-year-old Immediacy was back in the winner’s circle with a strong win at Mornington on Saturday. The gelded son of Tarzino was a Group Two winner at three and has built towards another raceday victory. Ridden by Michael Dee, Immediacy was put into the race, settling one out and one back and went on to score by 1.5 lengths from Foujita San with Golden Crusader back in third. Immediacy came into the race off a solid fresh-up sixth over a mile at Flemington and covered the 2000m in a slick 2:03.09. “We were confident he could win,” stable representative Darren Saunders said. “He was very good first up at Flemington and stepped up to the 2000m but still with some improvement in him. “There are nice races coming up in South Australia and we will assess in a few days and then find something for him.” Winning rider Michael Dee ensured Immediacy had every opportunity to reward his backers who supported Immediacy into a $2.80 favourite with horse racing bookmakers. “He showed me a lot as we wanted to be one off the fence and in a position where we could use his momentum,” Dee said. “He came off the bridle coming down the side and I wasn’t sure just how well we were going but he really built through his gears and he was strong to the line. “I popped out and took about 100m to wind up but on the bend I knew at that point the race was ours but also keeping in mind he was only second up at 2000m so there is plenty more in store going forward. “He pulled up having a nice healthy blow so there is plenty of improvement to come as he goes through his grades.” Horse racing news View the full article -

Kiwi filly Movin Out powers home in Mornington Guineas. (Photo: Bruno Cannatelli) Kiwi-bred filly Movin Out made a successful switch from Sydney racing to a tilt at Victorian riches when she came from well back to race to a dominant victory in the Mornington Guineas (1600m) on Saturday. The three-year-old daughter of Novara Park- stallion Staphanos originally began her career out of the Bill Thurlow stable at Waverley where she broke maiden status at her second start before finishing a meritorious third in the Group 1 New Zealand 1000 Guineas (1600m) behind Captured By Love and Alabama Lass at her third and final New Zealand run. Subsequently purchased by thoroughbred powerhouse Yulong, the filly joined Chris Waller’s operation in Sydney where she ran an eye-catching fourth first up in the Group 2 Phar Lap Stakes (1500m) before dropping out to finish last in the Group 1 Vinery Stakes (2000m) behind Treasure The Moment. Sent south by Waller, Movin Out was having just her third Australian outing on Saturday and she showed just what she is made off as she buried her rivals with a powerful home straight surge in the hands of Ben Melham to power away with the Guineas by more than two lengths. Waller stable representative Lizzie Collett was delighted with the filly who has already shown the stable she has a few tricks up her sleeve, both on and off the track. “She only arrived Monday morning with us but she travelled down well,” Collett said. “She is a fairly quirky character and I think the Sydney stable would agree with that, but she did everything right today as she was quiet and relaxed, and you couldn’t fault her in the mounting yard. “I was happy with the way she settled and she just did everything perfectly and next week we hope to back her up and go to Adelaide for the (Australasian) Oaks (Group 1, 2000m).” Melham was taken by the run and is keen to stick with the filly if she makes it to Adelaide. “She was very good and has been running in the right races where she was very unlucky in that first start in a slowly run race,” he said. “She got it all wrong in the Vinery but she has good ability and is still learning. She’s very aggressive and was much better today. You just have to switch her off and you can see the turn of foot she has. “I wasn’t happy to come around the lot of them but she had a class edge on them and when she relaxed, I was happy to take luck out of the equation and she was too good. “I would definitely ride her in Adelaide as she is more than good enough to win as long as she can get some tempo in the race.” Horse racing news View the full article -

Bankers Choice (#4) claimed victory in Saturday’s Listed Mornington Cup (2400m), securing a valuable spring opportunity. (Photo: George Sal – Racing Photos) Versatile Kiwi-bred galloper Bankers Choice has provided himself with a shot at one of the biggest prizes on the Victorian spring racing calendar with victory in Saturday’s Listed Mornington Cup (2400m). The seven-year-old son of Mongolian Khan provided trainer Glen Thompson with his first solo victory since the shock passing of his co-trainer Mike Moroney when he won his last start at Caulfield. Bankers Choice has often looked a capable stayer and Saturday’s victory was not only his second straight success over 2400m but the victory also makes him ballot exempt for the Group 1 Caulfield Cup (2400m) later this year. Regular rider Daniel Stackhouse was all out to hold off a strong late challenge from the Ciaron Maher-trained Strawberry Rock who lunged late to get within a nose of Bankers Choice at the winning post. Stable representative Anthony Feroce was all smiles as he provided a glowing report on the change to the horse who had gone through a form slump during the spring. “It’s just amazing as last year the plan was to get him into the Caulfield Cup after he ran second in the Sandown Classic (Group 2, 2400m) but he ran poorly during the spring,” Feroce said. “He went out to Jake Noonan’s partner Mariah’s place and she freshened him up nicely, so a big thank you to her. “Daniel gets on really well with him and when he jumped on him at Moonee Valley he decided to go forward on him, which worked out well and ever since he has been a different horse”. “It worked out perfectly today as we got into the place we wanted (third) early on, although I thought he was tugging a little bit and he hit the wall. Thank God that post came up when it did”. “We may look at Warrnambool (Cup, 2300m) next or we might just put him away until the spring. He is the sort of horse that seems to like continual racing so we will look at that when we are making any decisions.” Stackhouse was also rapt with the victory after the pre-race plan went exactly as he had hoped. “A big thanks to Glen Thompson as he has done an amazing job with this horse,” he said. “The plan worked out perfectly, near the speed which was just fine and he travelled so well”. “I nursed him into it at the 600m with plenty of horse underneath me and he was just too tough”. “He is jumping out of the gates so well now and is a very happy horse.” Horse racing news View the full article -
