Sanstoc (Tavistock NZ/Sara Ann NZ) only had to travel up the path to the Kensington track to compete in race 6, the TAB Handicap over 1400m today, Wednesday 15th February 2023.
She jumped well enough but found herself wide, contesting the lead with a sea of horses. Guided by Jockey Tom Sherry, went back to find the fence, slotting in closer to the rear of the field. There she travelled comfortably throughout, but unable to gain access wide, waited until a clear passage presented itself on the inside fence. Bursting through in spectacular fashion, she claimed the victory on the line to win by over 1.5 lengths.
Congratulations to the Owners, and connections, a much-deserved winner. Also, hats off to Tom Sherry on a great ride.
