The quest to reach 4000 winners goes into overdrive for Steve Turnbull at Bathurst tonight. 

The premiership-winning trainer holds 3994 wins to his credit since electronic records have been kept. 

Turnbull has a strong team at his local track tonight with 10 starters including a four-pronged attack in race five. 

This race includes Turnbull’s last start winner Myra Dawn. 

Turnbull has trained 43 winners this year with a winning strike rate of 14 per cent. 

The 65-year-old mentor has won some of Australia’s biggest harness races including the Miracle Mile and Inter Dominion with his former star pacer Smooth Satin.

Bathurst best bet
