Former New Zealand Junior Driver Michael Blakemore, now a stable hand for the powerhouse Greg & Skye Bond Stable has excellent prospects in the winning opening event at Gloucester Park on Friday Night for them.
Blakemore will drive talented Better B Chevron from Barrier 10, the 5yo who is undefeated this preparation landed a big scalp last start defeating fellow stablemate Dodolicious. The daughter of Bettors Delight worked hard outside of the triple G1 winner and although shaky in the betting market came home victorious taking stake earnings to $144,821. Despite this Better B Chevron and Blakemore will need luck from the inside of the back line with the better drawn Arthur Lowe hard to beat for Pinjarra horseman Nathan Turvey.
Other chances are Bravo Tex who has been freshened up for Boyanup trainer Justin Prentice and Dodolicious who has stake earning of $495,514.
Speed Man, a 4-year-old half-brother of Better B Chevron, is set to continue on his winning way in race 3 the “Steelo’s Midweek Meals At Gloucester Park Pace” for trainer Gary Hall Snr. The son of Rocknroll Hanover won 8 races from 19 starts in his opening campaign and steps out Friday night as a likely short priced favourite.
