The expectations were high for the debut of DUSTY BAY at Grafton after a dazzling trial effort.
And the Sandbar gelding backed it up in spectacular fashion, proving to be lengths better than the maiden field to the tune of 4.99L.
The experienced Aaron Bullock took bad luck out of the equation, settling the talented 2YO half a length off the leader on the outside and once they hit the straight, that was all she wrote, lengthening nicely for a nice debut win.
