AGE CLASSICS TAKE CENTRE STAGE
Our attention turns to the listed Nutrien Equine Classic trotting 2yo and 3yo finals at Melton on Saturday night (September 13).
Yabby Dam Farms-bred youngsters have a strong presence across four finals after qualifying at Bendigo on September 3.
They provide a great representation of the international bloodlines promoted by YDF, with runners out of Australasian, French and Italian-bred mares.
The series is for trotters who went under the hammer at Nutrien Equine yearling sales.
3yo filly Tracy The Jet (trained by Jess Tubbs) and unbeaten 2yo filly Afternoon Breeze (Russell Jack) were winners at Bendigo.
