25.01.2022 Thank you to the great man, John Tapp for this article. Go have a read. Link to article - johntapp.racing/gallops/2021/3/30/kerrys-hoping-for-better-luck-this-time-around

24.01.2022 Horseta La Vista has won the 1200m Soft7 CG&E MDN race at Moruya today with jockey, Jay Ford on board for the ride. Easy race to watch. Thanks to Jay for a great ride. Congrats Christine

24.01.2022 Misty Mountain Hop has won the 2600 metre BM64 stayer's race at Gosford on 13 June 2019. Jockey Adrian Layt took the ride. Misty jumped from barrier 4 and, when the gates drew back, he missed the kick and found himself at the tail of the field by about 2 lengths. Adrian adopted some positive riding on Misty after his delayed jump and was able to tack back onto the field quite easily. They improved their position to about a mid field rails run. After some keen travellin...g, Adrian was able to encourage Misty to settle and Misty then had his head on his chest into the first turn. Misty then drifted back to the end of the field after the first run up the straight but he is still looking to be travelling comfortably. At the 400, Misty commences his run under the encouragement of Adrian who kept him on the rails in the hope of the shortcut run presenting itself. Happily the run did open for Misty and he kept grinding away and finding metres the whole length of the straight. Misty secured his 3rd win from Dress Rehearsal in second and Continuation in third. All at the stables are thrilled with Misty's third up win this prep. He is a well liked horse around the barn and we hope we can find the winning stall again with him soon. Big congratulations to the connections of Misty. He has done you proud! Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos. Link to video - https://racing.racingnsw.com.au/FreeFields/VideoResult.aspx

24.01.2022 Thank you Vinery Stud for this Article. 'WINNING DOUBLE FOR HEADWATER Role Play (Headwater x Real Pleasure) is off to the paddock after paying her way in the Tuross Head Country Club Maiden (1310m) at Moruya on Sunday.... The Headwater filly rocketed down the outside rail for a one-length victory over One Man Band (Not A Single Doubt) and Think Rush (So You Think). She had put the writing on the wall with a similar flying finish over 1200m earlier this month. She will thrive with some warm weather on her back, trainer Kerry Parker said. I haven’t been in a hurry but she’s done everything on her ear. She’s progressive with a quick turn of foot and I’m looking forward to bringing her back in after a break. Role Play was one of the cheapest Headwaters to go through the 2019 Inglis Classic Sale when offered (as agent) by Holbrook Thoroughbreds. She’s a November foal and was only small but she was correct and paraded like an athlete, Parker recalled. Jess (Wilson) and I got her for $10,000 and that’s looking like a real bargain now. She did a big job to win against older horses on Sunday and I thought she was over the odds at $6. Role Play is the final foal from Real Pleasure (Octagonal) who was bred by Bob and Sandra Peters. She’s an unraced half-sister to Perth stakes winner Noble Cavalier (Melvista Quality LR) and their dam Real Treasure (Old Spice) was also a black-type winner of a Sheila Gwynne Quality LR in the west. Parker likes the Headwaters and he was instrumental in steering Illawarra-based businessman Tory Lavalle into buying Lamelo. Now prepared by Brett Lazzarini, he looks another likely type by Headwater who topped the Australian freshman table by winners (13) last season. ....... Vinery stands Headwater (Exceed And Excel) for a $13,750 (inc GST) service fee, payable on a live foal and he is fully booked for 2020. For bookings and further information about Vinery’s other stallions please contact Adam White (0414 800 918) or Harry Roach (0401 970 006)'.

20.01.2022 Thanks WIN News for this video

20.01.2022 Porky Pies told no lies at Nowra Races on 22 September 2019 winning the Class 1 Set Weights race over 2200 metres in impressive style, winning by 6 lengths. Jeff Penza took the ride on the odds on favourite, "Teddy" and they jumped from barrier 3. Teddy jumped brilliantly from the barriers and was able to hold his position at the front of the field.... After settling down out of the first turn out of the straight, Teddy secured the inside rails run just behind the leading pair. He looked very settled and comfortable throughout his run down the back side of the track. At the 800 metre mark, Jeff let Teddy roll forward and begin his run 3 wide into the home turn. He quickly leveled up to the front pair and raced away from them, steadily increasing his lead into the straight. It certainly was an easy race to watch with Teddy drawing clear and extending away from the pack all the way down to the winning post, securing a 6 length win to Olmeto in 2nd and Lady Grande in 3rd. Thank you Jeff for an outstanding ride on Teddy and getting him home for the win. Also a big congratulations to Deidre and Alex. We were thrilled that you were there to see Teddy salute.

19.01.2022 4 year old Star Witness mare (ex Inappropriate) has won for us first up after a stable change. Winona Costin took the steer in the 900 metre jump and run BM 58 race at Queanbeyan on 18 January 2021. After powering out of the gates, Judges Daughter was able to quickly secure the front running position. She mostly got to dictate the run without being bothered too much. at the turn, judges daughter had a kick and was able to quickly put away the two outside challengers. judg...es daughter seemed full of running and was very strong through the line, increasing her winning margin to 3 lengths from Sestina in 2nd and Tycoon Tily in 3rd. The whole team at the stables were thrilled we were able to assist Judges Daughter in finding her feet, giving her win number 3 to her name with 5 minor placings from just 19 starts. Thank you to her fantastic owners. We are very happy for you two! let’s hope it’s not too long between drinks! thank you to Lance Fearne Photographer for the photograph. See more

19.01.2022 Off the back of her last start win at Kembla Grange, Genoveffa has taken out the 1800 metres BM64 race at Hawkesbury on 31 August 2019. Cejay Graham rode Gen and they jumped from barrier 1. Gen jumped very well from the inner alley and was able to put herself in a box seat position early on in the race and maintain that position throughout her run and into the straight. She looked comfortable in transit and Cejay seemed to have a lot of horse under her on the point of the tu...rn. Travelling out of the turn and into the straight, with the rest of the field peeling out for a mid-track run, Cejay guided Gen to the inside of the pack and she ran on superbly all the way down the straight and secured herself another win, beating home Hemsted in 2nd by about a length and a half and to Chicansalade in 3rd. What a thrill for us all here at the stables. Gen has clearly been enjoying her racing which is evidenced in her wonderful performances this prep, in particular, her last two starts for two wins. All the staff at the stables devote so much time and energy into getting our horses right on race day and these past two months have been great for the stables and we are all very proud of all of our horses. Big congratulations to owners, Albert and Margot and to Mr and Mrs French. It's great to see the owners enjoying this ride as much as we are. Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.

19.01.2022 After a lovely trial at Kembla Grange on 4 September 2019, new stable horse 'Think it Over', a 4 year old son of prolific sire, So You Think, won the Class 2 1300 metre race on a soft 5 at Hawkesbury on 26 September 2019. "Sid" jumped from barrier 3 and had Jay Ford take the ride. Sid jumped well from the barriers and was able to settle mid-field for the first part of the journey. He looked to travel comfortably for Jay and had his head on his chest and looked to be settled ...and calm during the initial stages of the trip. Towards the end of the journey, Jay peeled Sid out at the turn into the home straight and he quickly leveled up to his opponent and began his run down the middle of the straight, drawing away from the pack and fighting out the finish with today's (7 October 2019) Warwick Farm winner, Sakura who finished 2nd behind our winner, Think it Over and Brilliant Mind who finished in 3rd position. It was a lovely ride from Jay, and we thank you for your efforts in the race. Congratulations to Sid's owners. All of us at the stables got a real thrill to be able to win first up for the stable. We hope there are many more wins in store for Sid. Thank you to Bradley Photos for the image.

19.01.2022 Tampering ("Patrick"), a 3 year old gelding by Pendragon out of mare, Hayaat, has secured a hatrick of wins after winning the following races in succession:- NOWR 29Mar20 1400m Soft5 MDN $22,000 ($11,200) Adrian Layt 58.5kg Barrier 12, 59kg 1:23.14 (600m 35.73). Patrick had to do it tough to secure this win. He was wide the trip and had to do a lot of work, three wide the journey. He showed a lot of class at the turn into the straight and was able to secure his maiden win i...n nice style in front of Unrestricted in 2nd place and River Charge in 3rd place. K GR 18Apr20 1500m Good4 CL1 $31,500 ($15,065) Adrian Layt 56.5kg Barrier 7 Rtg 56 2nd Silent Agenda 56kg, 3rd Just Society (NZ) 60kg 1:30.92 (600m 34.26) In this race, Patrick jumped out positively and was able to take a sit at the front of the field in the leading pair. He travelled beautifully for Adrian and, upon turning into the straight, nicely increased his lead to secure his 2nd win in a row from Silent Agenda in 2nd position and Just Society in 3rd. K GR 28Apr20 1600m Good4 BM70 $31,500 ($15,065) Adrian Layt 56kg Barrier 9 Rtg 61 2nd Navy Cross 56.5kg, 3rd Musume 55kg 1:36.35 (600m 35.39) After jumping from an awkward barrier, Patrick was placed in a position where he had to press on and go forward shortly after the gates crashed open. He travelled up quickly and took his position on the outside of the leader of the pack. Again, he looked to travel nicely for Adrian and secured his third win in a row from Navy Cross in 2nd and Musume in 3rd position. Us all here at the stables are thrilled with how Patrick is performing. He is certainly a happy horse and his race day performance is reflecting same. We would like to congratulate owners, Deidre and Alex. Thank you for your ongoing support. Lets hope there are many more wins to come for Patrick. Also big thank you to jockey Adrian Lewis Layt for 3 superb rides! Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.

17.01.2022 What a thrill it was to see Tenorino back in the winner's stall after taking out the BM68 1600 metre race at Gosford on 28 August 2020. It had been a little while between drinks for this 8 year old son of Galileo, but "Teno" got another win notched next to his name in nail biting style, now bringing his racing record to an impressive 7 wins, 4 seconds and 9 thirds from 65 race starts! For his latest win, Tim Clark took the ride. They jumped from barrier 1, carrying 55 kilos.... After the jump and up to the first turn, Tim was able to settle Teno towards the rear of the pack. Teno seemed to get into a nice rhythm and looked to be travelling well for Tim. At the home turn, Tim peels Teno off the rails and commences his run around the field into the straight. Teno catches up to the front running horses quickly and keeps whacking away down the straight to eventually take the lead, with the pack still close behind him. However, he was able to extend his nose out and keep the challengers at bay and notch up another win over Concessions in 2nd position and Silent Agenda in 3rd place. What a great, gutsy win from Teno. The stables are super proud of his effort at Gosford and we hope that it's not too long before he can salute again. Big thank you and congratulations to Tenorino's patient owners. Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.

17.01.2022 Congrats to our star, think it over after winning the group 3 Craven plate at Royal Randwick today. Big thank you to the staff who work tirelessly for our horses and their successes. Massive congrats to the wonderful owners as well

17.01.2022 Son of champion sire, So You Think, "Think it Over" (from Personal Service) has taken home the spoils after winning the Group 3 Craven Plate over 2000 metres at Royal Randwick on 17 October 2020 under the guidance of legendary jockey, Glen Boss. "Sid" jumped from barrier 1 and carried the weight of 59 kilograms for the race. Sid jumped cleanly from the gates. There was certainly some early competition as to who wanted to take up the lead, with about 5 horses all rallying f...or the front-running position. Eventually, Glen was able to get Sid in a nice and handy position being 2nd on the rails. He looked to travel superbly for Glen and seemed to be switching off nicely and getting into a lovely rhythm. Upon the turn, it looked like a not so good position for him to be - right up against the rails with horses all around him. However, Sid showed great fight and, when asked from Glen, squeezed himself through the small gap inside the leader. There was a wall of horses chasing, but, they weren't able to catch Sid, and he won by about a length to Nettoyer in 2nd position and Vanna Girl in 3rd. This was such a great win and us all at the stables are over the moon with Sid's success in this race. He just doesn't know how to run a bad race and its so great to watch how hard he tries each time he steps onto a racetrack. Big thank you to my loyal, hard working staff, who are equally as chuffed as I am. Thank you to Sid's owners. They have been great supporters of the stables and I am extremely happy for you guys. Finally, we would like to wish Sid all the best tomorrow when he races at Rosehill Gardens to contest the KYPREOS GROUP ROSEHILL GOLD CUP. Best of luck buddy!!

17.01.2022 Our bargain 2019 Inglis Classic Sale purchase, 'Role Play' (Headwater x Real Pleasure (Octagonal)) has broken her maiden win in impressive fashion after she took out race 2 being the 1310 metre SW Maiden race in heavy track conditions at Moruya on 16 August 2020. 'Happy' jumped from barrier 7, with jockey, Winona Costin taking the ride. Happy jumped well from the gates, but, due to some early speed on up front, WInona was happy to guide her to the rear of the pack to enable ...'Happy' to get into a comfortable rhythm during the run. Happy did find herself three wide for a fair portion of the trip but she did have cover and looked to be travelling nicely. Upon approaching the home turn, at about the 600 metre mark, Winona asked Happy to commence her run around the outside of the pack, and she responded nicely, moving up quickly to the front runners of the pack. Into the home straight, she was the widest runner, right down the outside of the track. Winona was able to balance her up and asked her to go again and Happy seemed to take off like a little rocket, bolting home down the outside for a well-deserved win over One Man Band (Not a Single Doubt) in 2nd and Think Rush (So You Think) in 3rd. Thanks to Winona for a smart and patient ride. It's certainly very nice to see Happy break her maiden so quickly. We've seen a great will to learn the art of racing from this filly and are excited to see where she can go with her racing career. She has a massive heart and always gives 120% in every run and in day to day work. Myself and the other owner, Jess Wilson are thrilled with the win! Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.

16.01.2022 Last night had the chance to take my staff out for a celebration dinner for Think It Over Group 3 weight for age win! The staff are always working hard and they have truly deserved this spoil. They are the back bone of Kerry Parker Racing and without such a wonderful crew; we wouldn't be where we are today. So a very big THANK YOU!

16.01.2022 Genoveffa has secured her third career win after winning the 1600 metre race at Kembla Grange on 8 August 2019. Jockey, Tim Clark took the ride, jumping from barrier two and weighed with 55 kilograms for the race. Gen jumped cleanly from the barriers and was able to maintain a forward running position during the early part of the race. ... There was some hot speed early in the race and at the 1400 metre mark, there was a true battle on up front for the leading position. During all this, Gen was able to settle back with a rails run, about mid-field in the pack. She looked to travel well for Tim and, at the turn into the long Kembla straight, Tim urged Gen to take a very narrow gap between horses and weave her way into clear running, which she bravely did. With a strong ride all the way to the line, Gen was able to drop her nose down on the line to secure the win from Emergent in 2nd place and Captain Manering in 3rd. Thank you to Tim for a great ride on Gen and also to the very happy owners who were there at Kembla to celebrate her win. This was an impressive and determined win from the Dreamscape mare and we hope there are many, many more to come. Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos

16.01.2022 Hi Everyone! It's the eve of Kembla's biggest race! I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the variety media outlets for their fantastic coverage and publicity leading into the big day. It has been a wonderful experience and am honoured to be waving the for the locals. Most importantly i would like to thank my staff for all their hard work to get us here and to my family, friends, owners and followers for all your support, good thoughts and wishes going into tomorrow's race. A Special thanks to owners/breeders Richard Johnson and Sid Alcorn for entrusting "Sid" with us. Lets hope Think It Over can do the Illawarra proud and run a cracker race! Thank you all once again. Good luck and happy punting!

15.01.2022 Don Luigi has locked down his Maiden win in impressive fashion at Kembla Grange on Melbourne Cup Carnival Day on 3 November 2020 after winning the 1200 metre Maiden race on a tough going Heavy 8 track at any old odds. Jockey Chad Lever took the steer, jumping from barrier 2, weighted with 56.5 kilograms. The 3 year old Nicconi x Witches Hat gelding had some big shoes to fill, kicking off his racing career in the shadows of his older winning siblings (the likes of Filomena, V...irgilio and Genoveffa). Track work had been all positive, but Don Luigi had struggled in his last two starts, finishing last in both, despite some excuses. Howeer, on 3 November 2020 in the Kembla Grange race, he jumped with authority and pushed his way to the front of the pack almost immediately. He was able to cross his stablemate and take a sit first on the rails. A few wide runners came to his outside to try and challenge him for the lead, but Don Luigi seemed to relish the challenge and kept building his momentum. At the turn, there was a wall of five horses deep and, cruising down the straight, they didn't go away, but our boy, Don Luigi was able to find another gear and grinded his way to the front to secure an impressive win by about half a length to Kibosh in 2nd and Go Troppo in 3rd. We ware so happy with Don Luigi's will to win on Tuesday and we hope he continues in this vein of form and we hope it's not too long before we see him back in the winner's stall once again. Huge congratulations to his fantastic group of owners, with a special mention to Albert Nocera (owner / breeder) who was over the moon with his boy's efforts.

11.01.2022 Thanks WIN News!

11.01.2022 Stable debutant, 4 year old Dissident mare, Everjust has shown a nice will to win after taking out the 1400 metre madien race at Goulburn on 31 July 2020 under the guidance of jockey, Alysha Collett, jumping from barrier 6. Everjust jumped positively from the gates, but was settled in to a mid-field position throughout the run. Upon approaching the home turn, Alysha asked the mare to find another gear, which she ultimately did. She kept grinding away down the home straight a...nd poked her nose through two horses, showing great might, to secure her maiden win from Kez in 2nd position and Alan in 3rd. What a pleasing debut performance from Everjust. We hope her next win is not too far away. Congratulations to connections and a big thank you to B K Racing & Breeding Pty Ltd for your ongoing support. Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.

08.01.2022 Two Wins on the Trot at Home Track for Virgilio Virgilio has saluted for 2 wins on the trot in 2 weeks at his home turf at Kembla Grange on 3 August 2019 and on 17 August 2019. On both occasions, Jockey, Cejay Graham took the rides.... The first win was the BM 64 over 1200 metres with "Alby" jumping from the wide barrier 10. Alby pinged the gates and was able to make an early cross and take up running in the first two of the pack. Alby had a great run in transit and looked a real danger after the turn. Cejay was able to spur Alby up and he passed the leader to run home and secure an impressive win to Segalas in 2nd and Golly I'm Lucky in 3rd. Then, on 17 August 2019, in his next race start, Virgilio was able to tick off another win in the 1300 metre BM 64 race at Kembla Grange also. This time drawing even worse with barrier 14 and carrying more weight than he did the start before. Like the last start, Virgilio jumped superbly from the wide barrier and Cejay was able to cross him over the rest of the pack early with him taking up a leaders position in the field. Virgilio was travelling keenly and Cejay let him roll forward and didnt fight him in the run, which proved to be a very educated decision. There was a hot speed on in the race and the field was strung out leading into the turn. Virgilio led into the straight with nearly a two lengths lead to the second horse and a gap back to the rest of the pack. Virgilio put the rest of the field away early and strode home to a very impressive win on home turf, beating home, by nearly 7 lengths, Destiny's hero in 2nd position and Singing River in 3rd. It certainly was an easy race to watch. Both wins were so exciting for us all here at the stables and we would like to extend our utmost congratulations to owner/breeder, and long time supporter of the stables, Albert Nocera, who, in the last two and a half weeks, has had 3 winners from 2 runners (Genoveffa and Virgilio). That is certainly something to be proud of. Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.

08.01.2022 We have two runners at the Hawkesbury meeting today. First we have Porky Pies who is 2nd up today in race 4 being the Class1 Handicap over 1800 metres and secondly, in race 8 we have Tenorino in the BM 64 Handicap over 1400 metres. Tim Clark is taking both rides. We hope both horses run well today and it would be great to secure another win for the stables today.... Best of luck to connections!

06.01.2022 Hearlet has won at Warwick Farm on 1 May 2019 in the BM70 race over 2100 metres on a good 4 track. Tim Clark took the ride. Heartlet jumped positively from the inside barrier and put herself in a good position leading up to the first turn. There was some pressure up front with the pack trying to sort out who will take the lead. Heartlet got a nice run in transit on the rails. At the home turn, Heartlet was shuffled back to the rear. However, Tim sat patiently on the rails..., waiting for his run to open, which it did. It was a great ride by Tim, with Heartlet only having to go around one horse into the turn. She accelerated through her gears and was too strong in the end, winning by a neck to Carif in 2nd and Hostwin Epanoui in 3rd. We would like to extend our greatest congratulations to owners, Deidre and Alex, who are long standing clients of the stable. We very much appreciate the support you have given us over many years. We hope there are many more wins to come. Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.

05.01.2022 "Hat's off to Parker, chasing more success with proven breeding ground" Thank you to the Illawarra Mercury for a great write up about Albert Nocera's breeding success with his mare, Witches Hat. We have had the pleasure of training many horses from breeder, Albert, in particular, the offspring of his mare, Witches Hat.... Witches Hat has thrown the likes of Virgilio, Genoveffa, and the new up and comers, Don Luigi and the newest progeny being a Shamus Award filly. The mare has proven herself to be a success in the breeding barn with Virgilio, by Snippetson, securing wins and placings at Goulburn to Kembla Grange to Warwick Farm and Canterbury, taking his total wins so far to an impressive amount of $229,950.00. Like Virgilio, mare Genoveffa, by Dreamscape, has also secured wins and placings at Queanbeyan to Goulburn to Hawkesbury, Kembla Grange and Canterbury. Genoveffa has also pocketed a tidy till of $131,245.00 to date. Excitingly, we now have youngster, Don Luigi, a 2 year old gelding by Nicconi, in the barn at the moment. He is the namesake of the original 'Don Luigi' who Parker had in his barn, another successful horse of Albert's. Don Luigi recently trialled 2nd of 6th in a 800 metre trial at Kembla Grange in May 2020. He is a lovely natured horse and we are very excited to see what his racing future holds. And lastly, arriving at the stables only a few days ago is the most recent filly from Witches Hat being a Shamus Award filly. Our initial thoughts on the filly are positive indeed. She is well put together and, hopefully, will inherit the traits of her brothers and sisters which will enable her to continue the success of the bloodline. Having all four offspring in work at the barn at the present time is certainly a happy moment for all the team. Congratulations to Albert for his ongoing success with the mare, Witches Hat.

04.01.2022 Misty Brook got the New Year's Eve celebrations started early after taking out the 1600 metre Maiden SW race at Nowra on 31 December 2020. Winona Costin took the steer and they jumped from barrier 7. Misty Brook has never been too far away from the money and she certainly deserved this win. Misty jumped super from the gates and was eventually able to slot in and take up a rails run, trailing only a couple of lengths behind the leader of the pack. She travelled well for Wi...nona and looked to be putting herself in a nice position during the run. As she approached the turn, Misty seemed strong in running. Happily, a split opened up to Misty on the corner of the home straight and, with clear running in front of her, she was able to loom up to the leader on her inside and bravely stick her head down on the line for a fantastic maiden win, beating home Jesse James in 2nd and Tip Top Timing in 3rd. Misty's will to win was a thrill to watch and it sure was a nice ending to what was a hard year for all! We are very happy that she now has the 'maiden monkey' off her back and hope that she is back in the winner's stall very soon. Thank you to Winona for a great ride. Big congratulations to Misty's owners, Jeff and Julie. Thank you for your ongoing support over the years. Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.

04.01.2022 On 11 July 2019, Tenorino won the 1200 metre BM 70 race on home turf at Kembla Grange. The track was rated a soft 6, with Teno jumping from barrier 5 with jockey, Jenny Duggan aboard for the ride. After a fair jump from the gates, Teno gets himself into a mid-pack run. He travelled well for Jenny and, leading into the bend, had about 6 lengths to make up from the leader. Teno peeled out and took the outside run down the long Kembla straight and quickened nicely to hold off... and secure another win, beating home Dolly's Due in 2nd position and Black Chilli in third place. All at the stables are very happy with Teno's efforts at his home track and liked the way he grinded home for the win. Big congratulations to connections of Tenorino.

02.01.2022 Some happy horses around the barn today

01.01.2022 3 year old daughter of Holy Roman Emperor, Sorridere has secured her maiden victory at Kembla Grange on 3 March 2020 after winning the 1400 metre Fillies & Mares MDN race. Jay Ford was on board for the ride. "Marie" jumped positively from barrier 4 and eventually settled into 2nd position behind a tear away leader. The pair increased their lead from the rest of the pack. The pressure was all on Marie to run down the front runner which she seemed to relish turning into the ...straight. She kept finding gears and was able to clear the leader and put 2.5 lengths on the 2nd horse, securing her maiden win in impressive fashion. What a great win by Marie. She showed great determination and will to win and we are excited to see her next run. Congrats to all connections! Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.

01.01.2022 Think it Over, the 4 year old gelding of Sire, So You Think won the 2000 metre BM 88 race on Saturday 29 February 2020 with jockey, Andrew Adkins taking the ride. They jumped from barrier 8 and was weighted with 52 kilograms. "Sid" jumped well with the pack and was able to slot in mid-field, one off the rails, early on. There was genuine speed up front and Sid was able to be switched off and found a nice rhythmn.... At about the 800, Andrew let Sid roll up and he commenced a three wide run leading into the turn into the straight. He ended up very wide after the turn, but was able to straighten up and showed a nice turn of foot down the straight, doing his best work within the last 50 metres, securing the win from Costello in 2nd and White Boots in 3rd. What a fantastic, gritty win from Sid. Thank you to Andrew for a superb and patient ride. We are so happy with Sid's performance and are excited to see him run again soon. Big congratulations to owners Richard and Sid. Photo courtesy of Bradley Photos.
