Cuban Cigar wasnt going to be denied today at Kembla Grange, as he picked up the win third up this preparation.
After running second, making up alot of ground last start at Newcastle, Tracey was confident leading into the race, “His runs have been good and he’s ready to win now so he’s in the right spot,” Bartley said. “He is a nice horse. He is not a big gross horse but he’s doing the right things.
Settling a little closer this run, and the rise in distance, did the trick as Mitchel Bell gave him a peach of a ride as he left the winner, improving his career record to 4:2-1-0.
This son of Churchill looks to have a promising career ahead.
