Seductive must be kept in mind

WITH racing enjoying a holiday tomorrow and trainers having a week to play with before resumption next Saturday, most stables seemed happy to just keep their charges ticking over with light work before deciding where to place them.

But while that was the norm at the the execises course at Santa Rosa Park, Arima,  yesterday, some were noted stepping up preparations a notch. Outrageous Victory, a lightly raced three-year-old, was among those who went at a faster than normal clip. The Stephen Jardim-trained started at a brisk tempo from the backstretch and looked better when he opening the trottle at the top of the straight. This strapping individual posted a time of 24.24 seconds over the last 400 metres of his run, and was best of the morning for the distance. Undisputed seemed to have settled down nicely to racing, and the Grant Lourenco-trained colt who tunred in his maiden certificate last raceday, looked full of life in his solo run over the last 600 metres of the main course clocked in 37.91 seconds. For the effort he attained a “good”  in the clockers rermarks column. Seductive caught the eye in his breeze over the same ground.

The Jagdis Suratsingh-trained seems to be going the right way after he stopped the clock in a comfortable looking 39.69 seconds for 600 metres. Following are yesterday’s recorded gallops:
