TRIAL POINTERS
WARWICK FARM October 7: Strong win by Redoute's Choice 5YO MA AND PA in the quickest of the three 1175m heats (70.23; 35.40) in his second trial for his new trainer. He won four of his 11 starts for Chris Waller and can build on that judging by the way he worked to the line over the last 300m from behind the pace under a cold ride with plenty in reserve.
ROSEHILL October 4: Unraced Zoustar filly KAZOU made an impression running fourth in her first trial on September 20 and went right on with it here to win her 900m heat by six lengths in a quick 53.80 (34.48). It was obvious there was intent to give her a good test with Hugh Bowman allowing her to run out to a big lead under no pressure. She kept up the pace and was cruising over the last 200m in a rare show of speed for a Waller-trained trial runner.
WARWICK FARM August 29: WAY TO THE STARS posted a sharp all the way win in the fastest 787m heat (46.80; 33.97).
