Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 4, 2020 Journalists Share Posted December 4, 2020 Jockey Leith Innes has a quality book of rides at Ellerslie on Saturday, including promising three-year-old Jason Belltree (NZ) (Ferlax) in the day’s feature, the Gr.3 Mitchell Family Bonecrusher Stakes (1400m). The Bruce Wallace and Grant Cooksley-trained son of Ferlax has won two of his three starts to date and was denied by a nose at Ellerslie two starts ago when beaten by Power On in a sit-and-sprint affair. Innes rode the handsome colt for the first time when successful at Counties over 1200m last start. “He’s a horse that is aiming towards the Derby (Gr.1,2400m),” Innes said. “I rode him on Tuesday morning and his work was first-class. “There are a couple of nice horses in there like Moana that will be hard to roll, but he is a great chance. “He has had a race around Ellerslie before and he handled it well two starts ago, so I’m very happy to be riding him,” he said. Jason Belltree is a solid second elect at $3.80 behind Moana, who has been backed into $2.50 with TAB bookmakers after opening at $3.80.
