Photo: Bruno Cannatelli Lindsay Park’s promising gelding Evaporate will aim for Group 1 glory in Saturday’s Group 1 Caulfield Guineas (1600m). The son of Per Incanto will try to become the first horse since the David Hayes-trained St Covet in 1994 to win the Guineas for Lindsay Park. Evaporate will also follow the path of Griff, who claimed the Guineas after winning the Group 2 Stutt Stakes (1600m) at Moonee Valley, a race Evaporate also secured in his last start. “He’s always shown us ability at home, and we knew when the penny did drop that he was going to be quite a bit of a weapon,” said Will Hayes, who trains alongside his brothers Ben and JD. “He’s built a picket fence, which is what good horses do. He’s found a niche at The Valley, and he really loves it there, so hopefully that carries over to Caulfield, but it’s going to be another rise in grade for him. “He is a Group 2 winner, so he’ll be going there as one of the fancied runners, I would assume. “We’re happy with him, and I think he’s just getting better as the prep goes on, but he’s got to take on Broadsiding now, and he looks pretty good. “So I’m glad that he’s got to come down from Sydney and meet us at our home deck.” Horse racing news View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
