Jumped well in second and thats where he stayed for the entire race. Speed of 83 which wasnt his career best but wasnt far behind either (87).\u00a0 Apart from the one failing at G1 level, he has never placed worse than third.\u00a0 Consistent runner and a good one for the triner in uask4it. This distance looks good for him too. I think he is suited to this grade and hopefully will keep him at this level just to build up his confidence as well as getting the results.\u00a0 Well done here.<\/P><P><STRONG><EM><FONT size=4>3rd<BR><\/FONT><\/EM>PLAYERS CHAMPION(TX)<\/STRONG> is from one of the local Qld trainers in <EM>Hawkz Racing Inc<\/EM>.

Anyway he is out of a well respected and successful local trainer from the <EM>Nextbonus Racing stables<\/EM> in Queensland who knows what they are doing.
