Lucilago and debut winner Runranirun will carry the hopes of the jockey/trainer duo.
Jockey Blake Spriggs will look to continue a successful association with Warwick Farm trainer Matthew Smith when the pair combine in two races at Muswellbrook on Tuesday.
Spriggs will partner the Smith-trained Lucilago in the Muswellbrook Workers Club Maiden Handicap as well as the impressive debut winner Runranirun in the Now Listen Dot! Happy Retirement Benchmark 66 Handicap .Lucilago is a mare by Rubick that has one second to her name from just seven starts, and she resumed from a spell with a sixth at Hawkesbury behind Wave Breaker.“Her trials leading into that run were good, and she’s performed well in city grade earlier in her career as well.
“There was a lot to like about that win,” said Spriggs. “She was on the speed and ran right away from them. She’s up in grade for her, but she’s drawn well, and it looks a nice stepping stone to bigger and better things for her.” Spriggs will have two other rides at Muswellbrook, with Miss Adamas awaiting in the DK Heavy Plant Services Country Boosted Maiden Plate , and Chestime in The Royal Hotel Country Boosted Benchmark 58 Handicap . Both gallopers are trained by James Dobie.Miss Adamas is resuming from a spell and has been placed at Muswellbrook in her career that has reaped 10 placings from 19 starts.
Meanwhile, jockey Andrew Adkins and trainer Jason Deamer will also combine with two leading contenders at Muswellbrook with Just A Fire in the F.A.S.T Fire Protection Maiden Plate and Altercation in the Pirtek Muswellbrook Class 1 Handicap .
