Gandy unveils another impressive 2YO.

Brighton trainer Stuart Gandy has never missed a race meeting during his training career but he and wife Ruth had other commitments on Sunday that deprived the talented mentor from witnessing his quality filly Needs Sugar winning the $125,000 Listed Kevin Sharkie Elwick Stakes over 1200m in Hobart.

A field of 12 will take place in the 2018 Bow Mistress Trophy at Hobart on Friday with some horses on winning streaks.

Three years ago Tasmanian trainer Charlie Goggin was offered a filly that was unlikely to make it into any decent yearling sale with the only cost involved being the expense of transporting the youngster from the Hunter Valley in NSW to Tasmania.
