OFF THE RICHTER

MITCHELL PATEMAN · HOLLY WATSON · 3yo Gelding

Returns from a lengthy lay-off after finishing fifth of six on debut at Pinjarra, beaten just over four lengths behind Axopar after racing keenly and failing to finish off. The latest trial was a close second at Belmont Park, which gives some fitness encouragement, and the stable has track strength. Stable on fire and he can return with a bang.
