Trainer Corless was happy with the performance from his chaser.
“So impressed with his run last night,” he said.
“After the jump I was just hoping he could hold the seven (Hardaway Ranger) out.
“He did exactly that but then got jammed up in between the three (Count On Me) and the eight (Wyndsor Rose).
“Turns out he didn't like it there, so he just did what he does and burned through to the lead.
“He seems to be racing well once a week over the shorts.
“As long as he is happy and healthy, we will continue on with that.
“We will aim him for next Wednesday in the masters.”
The Keybow x Contezza Fonic dog is a proven chaser with 28 wins and 40 placings from his 118 career starts.
