The midweek racing saw the Smart Missile's continue their super run with a treble which included Smart Aint He who was successful after almost falling in the Canterbury maiden. It was a great piece of riding by Blake Shinn who was also on the winner in the final race of the day. The talented Smart Edge . While the double for the stallion, Hussonet is something worth touching on. First it was Pretty Glass at Murray Bridge then Golden Tycoon at Canterbury. He continues to produce winners of quality over the shorter trips. The recently departed Hinchinbrook also got a double with wins from the 2yo colt Leanardo Da Hinchi at Sandown and five year old gelding Trafalgar for trainer Chris Waller.
Checkout Smart Missile now 15th on the Australian stallion list for this season with only three crops racing.

- Holy Command -- The Zac Spain and Mick Price combination struck again at Sandown with the good win of the Smart Missile gelding, Holy Command. After a nine week break, Zac sent him down the centre of the track to record an easy victory. He is out of the Flying Spur mare, Matinee and is one to watch for sure.

- Sandown and Illumicon -- Another runner appearing fresh yesterday and recording a strong win was the Tony Mcevoy trained gelding, Illumicon. This Nicconi galloper is out of the Encosta mare, Elucidate and made his run down the centre of the track as well, to record a victory over the 1000m trip.
- In the opening event on the Sandown card we saw the win of the unbeaten Hinchinbrook colt, Leonardo Da Hinchi. He was ridden by Ben Allen for Darren Weir and is out of the Octagonal mare, Portrait. We lost the promising stallion last week to a paddock accident and this win and the one of the Waller trained, Trafalgar at Canterbury are two reminders of his influence. Trafalgar was returning from a long layoff and good ride by young NZ jockey Sam Weatherly who is riding in awesome form at the moment securing a narrow victory over the Canterbury 1900m.
- Smart Aint He and Smart Edge -- The talented but erratic Smart Missile gelding give Blake Shinn one torrid ride before breaking his maiden for the Cummings stable at Canterbury. He almost fell around the back of the track with Blake losing his irons but somehow managed to recover and secure the win. The Snowden trained Smart Edge scored a good win in the last to secure a double for the breed and a double for jockey Blake Shinn.
- Canterbury and Gwenneth -- I wanted to mention this four year old mare Gwenneth, in my summary because i can see a huge improvement in her recently while putting two successive wins on the board. Today, she was ridden by Kayla Nisbett in the benchmark 75 over 1100m for Mitch Beer. She is out of the Reset mare, Moorunda Miss. The Reward For Efforts never really mature i dont think until they turn three. She maybe one to follow over the next twelve months.
Go the leopard print! Gutsy win by Gwenneth who leads all the way in Sydney for @MitchBeerRacing. pic.twitter.com/AmDIdpxFQC— Chatswood Stud (@ChatswoodStud) July 25, 2018
- Murray Bridge -- It was ladies day with Raquel Clarke getting a treble and Jamie kah continuing her winning way and tallying 150 wins for the season. One of Raquel"s rides was the lightly raced Pretty Glass for Sue Jaensch who came home strong to beat the wayward Manhattan Melody to make it two wins from three starts. The four year old mare is by Hussonet who have alot of success in South Australia and today we even saw the breed have success at Canterbury with the two year old Golden Tycoon adding to the breeds win tally. Both races were over the 1200m trips.
