ECHUCA – September 6, 2022
Six year old Fling It - Rainbow Reflection gelding Fling It Rainbow raced and trained by Rockbank’s Albert Cefai was successful in the VHRC / Aldebaran Park Trotters Handicap over 2130 metres. Driven by James Herbertson, Fling It Rainbow enjoyed a charmed passage from gate five trailing the speedy leader Starlight Storm (gate four). Angling away from the markers to challenge approaching the home turn, Fling It Rainbow dashed away shortly after to win in a breeze by 11.5 metres from honest mare Mystic Chip (four pegs) after galloping just after the start when in front from gate three. Starlight Storm held third a half head away. The mile rate 2-04.4.
It was a big race for Albert who apart from the winner’s cheque, also received the trainers bonus.
A host of paid-up owners of 4Y0 Sportswriter-Neishars Jet gelding Azterian - Maree Caldow, Matthew Caldow, Lauren Caldow, Niki Salvatore, Shaun Gatt, Rebecca Vella, Sandra Galea, Michael Crawley and Cary Dixon would have been elated after the horse scored in the APG Offers $2.2M In Prizemoney Pace over 1755 metres. Trained by Maree and driven by John Caldow, Azterian raced exposed all of the way from gate five before outstaying his rivals to record a head margin over the pacemaker Shaken Sands (gate six), with Rock N Dash (one/two – three wide last lap) a half head away third. The mile rate 2-01.4.
