Miss Trustful to chase some black-type

Jun 5, 2024

How good was that, Miss Trustful in enemy territory for the Vic Husslers taking the prize on Saturday (June 1) at Beaudesert to break her Maiden at only start number 3. 

While it’s important not to get too carried away with the win, she did have to overcome plenty of obstacles including but not limited to barrier 14, a Heavy 10 track and being away from home. 

Your 2yo daughter of Dubious also got taken on in the lead, but kicked clear on the corner and was the strongest to the line. That effort ticks a lot of boxes and gives the Vic Husslers a great start in the chase for the $10,000 in CASH for Month 8 of TRL Season 3. 

The plan now is to chase some black type with the filly. 



QTIS BONUS MONEY

Miss Trustful did it in style and on top of the first-place prize money picked up $18,000 in QTIS Bonus money – Yes it’s nice when a plan comes off. 

Jockey Jag Guthmann-Chester gave the filly a lovely steer and a nice wrap on dismounting. 

“Very nice win today, obviously I’m very happy. We drew the outside gate, she began well so we just took our time to come across and once we did we took up a position outside the leader and she travelled nicely on the bridle. 

Coming to the 400m we just upped the tempo and when she did come off the bridle she did struggle in that Heavy going so it was a good win,” Guthmann-Chester concluded.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR MISS TRUSTFUL

It’s probably time to step it up and for Miss Trustful to take on some of the more high quality races according to Ciaron Maher form analyst Nathan Snow in an effort to get some black type next to her name. 

The good news is that she has pulled up and will have a few days off at Embrook Stables. 

“We have her nominated for The Phoenix at Eagle Farm this weekend now that means she would be on the seven-day back-up and step up to 1500m. We thought it was worth a nomination and just see how the race comes up on Wednesday, it might come around a little bit too soon. 

There are other other options coming up for her including the Oxlade Stakes on the 15th of June at Eagle Farm. It’s a Listed race worth $160,000 and that’s over 1300m. 

We will take a look at all suitable options, and be back in touch to confirm her plans going forward but we will be chasing some black type with her.” Nathan Snow said.

BOUNCE BACK FACTOR 

As Tycoons were made aware of, there’s a theory in racing that when a horse suffers from cardiac arrhythmia, “you must back it next start” and they win. 

And that was certainly the message after Cool Jakey suffered cardiac arrhythmia the previous start at Randwick, with Joe Pride telling Tycoons in the pre-race late mail, “Don’t worry about what happened last start, the horse is fine and he looks great,” how right Joe was with Cool Jakey leading all the way.

HIPPO FROM BARRIER TO BOX

Adam Hyeronimus was having his first sit on Cool Jakey and he rode him a treat. We joked before the race “just go to the front and improve your position” and that’s exactly what he did. 

“He jumped well and found a nice rhythm straight away, he had a nice time so I let him slide early into it at the 600metres so we did go a bit early. 

“He felt fantastic throughout the run and was doing it easily, so I did get a bit of a surprise how quickly he stopped. 

“So maybe I did go too early, but in saying that, maybe seven furlongs is his upper limit. On that effort he’ll be winning again” Jockey Adam Hyeronimus said.

JOE DELIGHTED

“That was good guys” trainer Joe Pride said, with a big smile to a large contingent of NSW Tycoons on Cool Jakey returning to scale. 

“Look it was nice to see him win on a track that wasn’t bottomless wet, it opens up a lot more opportunities for him. 

“In saying that if there was a 1400m for him in a fortnight on a Good track I would probably be reluctant to start him. We need to nurse him through it and the next month – six weeks isn’t going to be easy because it’s carnival time.

WHATS NEXT – PACK YOUR BAGS

The Tycoons have been very patient with Cool Jakey and their patience has been rewarded. He is building a very nice career record which stands at only 13 starts for 5 wins and a minor placing and is now pushing the $200,000 in prize money. 

‘Jakey’ has initially pulled up well, but we all know that he is a delicate soul and has to be treated with kindness and Joe is reluctant to push him too hard too quickly. Which is fair enough. 

“We might even consider travelling him maybe to Melbourne or Brisbane for a wet track, we just need to look after him.

“He’s been a good horse for us, we will look after him and his best opportunities will come in the Winter,” Joe concluded. 

Congratulations to all NSW Tycoons and winning connections.

Go you good thing!
