📍JJ is racing at our home track at Winton tomorrow

🐴 Jay Jay Denario | C.Ferguson | R2 | #3 | 1:38pm

💭 Finally JJ gets a swing in draws in what looks to be a very winnable race. She’s been getting absolutely no luck recently in far stronger fields whilst still finishing them off well. She should take some stopping here.

🍀 Best of luck to owners - Mark & Pauline O'Connor, Tim Ryley, Mike Maynard and Stephen O'Connor

🥇 Ramblin Rover does best & scores his 2nd win for the stable.

🙌🏼 Finally getting a half decent draw & run made all the difference, after sitting 3 fence once finally in the clear he was able to rocket up the passing lane and sore reasonably easily in the finish!

🥂 Congrats to owners - C M Faithful, Ben McMaster, Louise Cox, Tracey McMaster & Norm Cox

📸 Ben who shouldn’t have much voice left!! & a happy Rover

📍 Rover heads to Gore on a very chilly Southland winters day.

🐴 Ramblin Rover | C.Ferguson | #10 | R1 | 1:42pm

💭 No luck last time out, way to far away over the mile. What looks to be a better draw today, hopefully won’t get too far away and should be in with a shot.

🍀 Good luck to connections

📍 Take two of racing at Winton for the Southern Surge Finals with JJ & Rover tomorrow.

🐴 Ramblin Rover | R6 | #7 | C.Ferguson |3:24pm
💭 Nice effort last start, 3 wide for the last lap & wide turning for home, tried really hard for 4th. Also had the fastest splits in the race. Terrible draw in a big feild so will be needing some luck but definitely a top 4 chance.

🐴 Jay Jay Denario | R8 | #6 | C.Ferguson | 4:18pm
💭 Getting absolutely no luck recently but continuing to go good races. She also had the quickest closing splits in her race, unfortunately again over the mile with another terrible draw so will be needing to find some luck hopefully!but also definitely not without top 4 chance.

🍀Best of luck to connections.

🏁 JJ & Rover head to Invercargill today.

🐴 Ramblin Rover | C.Ferguson | R3 | #13 | 2:00pm
💭 Uncharacteristic early gallop last start didn’t help his cause but he found the line well after that. Work is good and with some luck shouldn’t be far away.

🐴 Jay Jay Denario | C.Ferguson | R7 | #6 | 4:00pm
💭 Very little luck last time out but ran on well once in the clear to finish 4th. Another ordinary draw, but she’s very well & with some luck won’t be far away.

Very true words..
They love to give racing a hard time yet good retirement homes are becoming harder & harder to find.

🏁 Racing on our home track for the Wyndham Harness Racing Clubs meeting for the first heats of the Southern Surge with paddock mates JJ & Rover

🐴 Ramblin Rover | C.Ferguson | #3 | R5 | 2:02pm

💭 Last start winner & won nicely. This is not really much harder, will come down to who gets the best runs but he’s happy and well and won’t be far away.

🐴 Jay Jay Denario | C.Ferguson | #8 | R7 | 2:53pm

💭 Very pleased with her effort last start after working overtime for the whole first lap, she stuck on bravely. She’s up against it drawing the outside of the front line but she’s also happy & well & with some luck can give some cheek.

🥇 Congratulations to Sam Payne who Purchased ‘Makani’ or better known as Jimmy around the stables during his 2024 Yearling Sales Prep. Picking up his first win on Friday night at Addington, he looks to have a promising future once he figures out what racing is all about!

SBSR MAKANI is a winner!
Displaying superb manners at Addington Raceway the MAJESTIC SON gelding showed the talent connections knew he had.

The bloodline running hot with his dam HAWAIIAN HULA being a half sister to top-class trotter GUS.

Breeder Mark Hurrell offered him through the 2024 National Yearling Sales through the SBSR draft of Chelsea Faithful.
