TRIO OF GEELONG RUNNERS

New Hamphire, Dreamt Ofbein King and Do I are our runners today at Geelong.

The trio will be ridden by Daniel Stackhouse with New Hampshire (pictured) the first to go in race one over 1230m.

“It’s his first run back after a break and I’m happy enough with him,” Mike said. “He’s still a colt and has trialled up well but he will need to show us something to stay that way.

“He’s ready to go today and will not have to have improved too much to get the job done so it will be nice to see that happen and then we can make a plan.”

Dreamt Ofbein King makes his debut in the third race over 1230 metres.

“He’s drawn wide again which is frustrating but he’s ready to go so we will take our chance,” Mike said.

“He’s shown us good ability in his trials and work both here and in New Zealand but he needs to learn to settle and when he can do that then he shows good ability.”

Do I runs in the fourth race over 1430 metres and continues to please Mike on the track.

“He’s working like a nice horse and his first start was respectable,” Mike said.

“I can’t fault him, the extra trip today will suit and with ordinary luck I think he will be hard to beat.”
