Steady Growth Stakes
1 1/16 Mile Dirt Stake Purse $125.000 Open 3 Year Olds And Up Foaled In ON.
1st Connectivity, trained by BigKing
As i suspected and right on line with the HRP trend the three year old Connectivity
proved too good for the older horses today. Never far off the pace he sauntered home
by two lengths. Sold by Mb Stables as a KYD non qualifier he could prove to be a good
buy now the three year olds look so dominant and it will be interesting to see how he
does against his own age group.
2nd Cool Guy Twist, trained by Luz International
Put into the lead by the outside speed push he ran a cracker considering he had no
chance from the draw and against the three year old. A real consistent sort at this
level he again escapes a stakes penalty and must win one eventually.
3rd Asereje, trained by Rockitpad
Whacked away for third but never looked like beating the winner. This was another
decent effort from this honest sort.
4th Sunny California, trained by Night Rider Stables
The other wide drawn horse he ran much more like a wide gate horse does at HRP going
with the early speed but weakening late on.
5th London Dry
Ran on late as usual but never got close enough to mount a serious challenge.
6th Mr Relko
Proved once again that he was a great sale by Heavens Own who clearly saw his black type
win last November as a last hurrah.
