Sizzling Times At First Breeze Up Session

Despite being faced by a wet track after 24 hours of rain, sizzling times were the order of the day during the first of two breeze up sessions held at the Gold Coast Turf Club today.

Showers persisted during the session and despite this no fewer than 79 horses broke 11 seconds during the day.

The quickest time was recorded by the Washpool Lodge consigned Testa Rossa-Decipher colt who stopped the clock in 10.16 seconds for its 200 metre breeze.

Catalogued as lot number 244, the chestnut colt is from a lightly raced daughter of the multiple Group One winner Electrique.

An Exceed and Excel half brother to the stakes winner Coincidental ran 10.2 seconds – the second quickest of the day.

Sharing the third quickest time of the first session was a filly by Mossman (Lot 60) and a colt by Written Tycoon (Lot 224) – they both went down the 200 metres in 10.24 seconds.

A total of 163 ready made gallopers breezed up today – with almost half of them running sub-11 seconds.

The second breeze up session at the Gold Coast Turf Club will commence at 10.30am (Qld time) tomorrow.

Further breeze up sessions will be held at Seymour and Rockhampton on Thursday and Friday respectively.
