Victory as good an advertisement as you would want
SIR LEO is for sale.
So, winning Friday's $22,000 The Poultry Party Maiden Plate (1600m) at Tamworth was as good an advertisement as you would want.
And, Muswellbrook trainer Todd Howlett thought so, too.
"Yeah, it's good to see him do that," he said after his three-year-old gelding son of All Too Hard had held on for a neck victory from the Kris Lees-trained Lucitor.
Ellofarock was a half-length away third in 1:37.96 minutes.
"He was disappointing at Coffs at his last start," Howlett said.
"But, we had stepped him up in distance there."
Ashley Morgan jumped off a happy jockey, too.
"He travelled super today," he told Howlett.
