Newcastle trainer Kris Lees likes the chances of his four-year-old mare.
Local trainer Kris Lees is hopeful some handy metropolitan form will come to the fore at Newcastle on Sunday when the talented Bestower contests the Pro-Torque Cessnock Cup – Conditional Benchmark 68 Handicap .
“Her form towards the end of her last campaign was solid in city grade races, and then she resumed this campaign with an acceptable effort at Kembla Grange before running well when finishing second at Newcastle. TAB Fixed Odds had Bestower as a pre-post favourite for the Cessnock Cup, ahead of the Matthew Smith-trained Subarctic, which has been campaigning in Victoria of late.
