Jumie keen
Special correspondent Greymoutb Greymouth-trained gallopers, many of which are to start at the Westport meeting on Saturday, participated in organised trackwork at Omoto last Saturday. Galloping was held on the course proper, 12m out on a heavy track. The most impressive of the trialists were Jumie and the Ray Shields-trained mare, Our Queen. Irish Totara and Bilingual galloped from the 800 m in 55s with Irish Totara shading her rival at the finish. The. Bottle Top three-year-old, Rebel’s Knight, impressed when he finished three lengths clear of Red Rok at the end of 800 mt Bridgie Girl, which is to be sent to stud at the end of this season showed she had freshened well when galloping with Dancer Boy over 500 m, Bridgie Girl shaded the open handicapper at the line. Jumie, galloped attractively over 600 m in 38.8 s and Our Queen went quietly over 800 m in 54.95. She had plenty in reserve and is a sound prospect for Westport.
