The Stables Weekly Update 2 Feb 2026

RACING

SMART CRY went to Newcastle for a Class 2 Hcp, over 1200m, on the Beaumont track. A soft 6, after overnight rain, saw a bias towards runners on the speed. She had no luck as they turned for the run home, when horses went round her at the top of the straight, which saw her held up for run, only getting clear with 100m to go. When she got galloping room SMART CRY responded well to run 5^th beaten just over 2 lengths.     

JUMP OUT

RESCORE went through the gates at Warwick Farm, in her first educational look. She performed well, and will now be headed to a jump out, towards the end of February.    

STABLE CHATTER

PICK UP THE TAB continues to do, and work, well, with no issues to date. Bjorn is looking at a trial on Friday, 23 February, all going to plan.

REAL BAKER is ticking over nicely at Warwick Farm, as Bjorn increases his work load. Looking for him to jump out late Feb.
