And A Double To Luciani!
Posted on 27/08/2009 | Posted by Julio Santarelli | Back to News Archive

 

Whatever Graeme Ballantyne can do I can do as well.

 

That could have been the reaction of Lou Luciani who mirrored Ballantyne with a race-to-race double of his own at Northam this afternoon.

 

Cold Command brought up the first leg with a strong win over stable mate Baskerville Street in the Forrest Producers Commission Maiden (1300m).

 

Ridden with great vigour and urgency by promising young apprentice Andrew Castle, Cold Command had too many guns over the concluding stages to record the first win of his career.

 

Castle rode like a man possessed to ensure Cold Command wasn’t going to be the stable bridesmaid once again after going down to Destroid last start.

 

He reached the lead within the 300 metre mark and was not going to be denied this afternoon.

 

Baskerville Street tried valiantly but couldn’t bridge the gap after doing work early and being caught wide.

 

A great ride by Castle who in a short space of time is attracting attention and is riding with poise beyond his years.

 

Castle Blitz broke through for his first win in the Rewards Premium Timber Maiden (1300m).

 

Jason Whiting had the Bletchley Park 4-year-old positioned in second place behind Disney Time and the pair made it a race in two to the line.

 

Within 200 metres Disney Time was still in front and giving plenty of cheek but Castle Blitz was mowing her down with every stride and won by a neck.

 

Galaxy Dream was third and Dottore ran home from near last for fourth.
