Race a gift to the community
Toosbuy’s racing as well as ever HORSE RACING
By Ben Triandafillou THE consistent Brett Scott-trained gelding, Toosbuy, continued his brilliant start to his preparation by scoring his fourth victory at Cranbourne on Friday 29 November. The six-year-old son of Danerich sat wide and towards the rear of the field for the entire race before unleashing a powerful finishing burst to score a comfortable one-and-three-quarter length victory over the Gary Cluning-trained Written Letter and the Lloyd Kennewell-trained Crimson Tycoon. It was a great way to close out the night for jockey, Daniel Stackhouse, who bought up a winning double having also won on the Lindsay Parktrained Zorro Macho earlier in the night. Mornington-based trainer Brett Scott was stoked to see his honest galloper continue on his solid preparation. “He’s not a spring chicken, but he just keeps giving his all,” trainer Brett Scott said. “He was going to go back and then the pace slackened, and he got trapped wide with no cover, but he was always travelling nicely and had plenty to give when Daniel asked him.”
“He has gotten a lot better mentally with age. He used to be quite a hot horse and do a lot wrong and over race, but he continues to be a great horse for our stable.” After 29 career starts and having four wins and eight placings to his name, Toosbuy seemingly looks to be going as well as he ever has heading into the New Year. The gelding has earnt $155,000 in prize money and will now likely begin to make his way towards a metro class race. Brett Scott said that any rain around will be a massive positive, as Toosbuy seems to thrive with a bit of cut in the ground. Eventually running the gelding over a mile also isn’t out of contention despite failing twice at the trip previously. “He’s had two goes at the mile and to be honest both times he’s led them up and that’s not his go so I think he can get a mile if he’s ridden right and switched off but at the moment he’s still coming up,” he said. “That was only his second run this prep, so we’ll just try to go to 1400m now and find the right race and hopefully there’s something on the horizon.” “That was a good result today, the owners are happy, and he just continues to be an honest horse.”

was unreal... it took a bit to sink in, but when it did I was over the moon!” In Kysha’s first year in her new squad, the 2019 Rye Gift champion and Stawell Gift semi finalist has fit in quite naturally based on her strong performance. “The whole crew at Pride Performance have been incredible to me since coming over at the start of pre season, I couldn’t be more grateful for them all, especially my coach, Matt Carter.” Still a young and developing athlete, the sky seems to be the limit for the Mount Eliza based student. I’m not too sure [of the next goal], at this point in time we’re just taking it one step at a time. We have relays this weekend which will be a lot of fun and then I’ll be having another hit out at the Warrnambool Gift the following weekend.” The Men’s Gift was run and won by Queensland emerging talent Max Mason, holding off last years runner up Fejiro Omuviwe and Rye sprinter Jasper Nettlefold.

Wide, too good: Toosbuy poses for a winning photo with Mornington trainer Brett Scott and the winning connections after landing his fourth victory in 29 starts. Picture: Supplied
By Brosnan Kelly IN only its second year, two hundred and forty athletes from around Victoria - and some interstate - descended upon the Thomas Barclays Oval for the annual running of the Hastings Gift. An event organised by a local community based group, ‘Peninsula Athletics Association Incorporated’, the Gift was initiated in 2018 in an attempt to raise interest in the suburb and attract tourism to the area, as well as aiding in the continuity of the richly historic sport of Professional Athletics. The AGL Hastings Women’s Gift was run and won by emerging sprint star and local peninsula talent Kysha Praciak. The 20 year old crossed the line in the 120m main event in 14.37 seconds, holding off a fast finishing South Australian Ellie Whittingham, and training partner Sienna Fighera in the final. Kysha celebrated with family, partner and her training squad Pride Performance, coached by Matt Carter. “Crossing that line and hearing the commentator say that I had taken out the Hastings Gift
