Bedford Square
Like a shot out of a gun!
Wednesday (postponed Saturday) 27th November- Doomben
Our mighty Tavistock mare notched up another Saturday metro win for connections in what was a sizzling last 400m!
She is a mare in form running 3rd, 2nd & 1st respectively in her last three starts and it was a well deserved win. An outstanding ride from Emily Lang and showed patience to settle her where she was comfortable, that allowed Bedford to show her brilliant turn of foot and boy did she scorch home!
Bedford Square will take her shot at some stakes races over the Summer Carnival and we have no doubt she will account for herself well.
Congratulations to our partners and connections
Bews
Wins on debut for HCR!
Saturday 26th October- Doomben
He had to do it the hard way after missing the start and a track bias heavily against him but his turn of foot was ultra impressive as he scorched home in very impressive time.
Credit to Cody Collis who rode our boy in his QLD debut for HCR, he kept his cool from a hopeless position on the bend to weave a passage through and kick clear by a length in the final 50m.

Atmosphere
Scorches in class record time!!
Saturday 7th September - Doomben
Get to the lead, kick on the turn and make them catch you was the instruction to hoop Emily Lang and that's exactly what she did. A great ride on a super quick surface saw our boy winning on a firm, fast surface for the first time. It was an impressive display that saw our boy notch up his 2nd Saturday Metro win in his first QLD preparation!
Great to see so many owners on track enjoying the experience, congratulations to all!
All In The Mind
Perfect timing!!
Wednesday 21th August - Warwick Farm
The Irish import goes bang and notches up win number two for the preparation.
He was ridden outside his comfort zone last start; the key is to ride him quiet and save him up for one big run.
Great to see everyone's patience being rewarded with success now coming on the track.
Daytona
Impressive turn of foot!!
Saturday 17th August - Doomben
Daytona notched up his second win of the preparation beating a classy field at Doomben. As expected he had to do it the hard way coming from the tail of the field. Ryan Maloney knew what he had under the bonnet and sat patiently before pulling Daytona out wide to run over the top of a classy field. His had the flashing red lights on in his last few starts with some bad luck in the run but his class shined through today in what was a well deserved win.
Rock Composer
Breaks Through!!
Monday 5th August - Lismore
ROCK COMPOSER broke his maiden in fine style at Lismore today under the steer of young apprentice Claire Ramsbotham. Pushing through to put himself in a good position early, he was posted three wide on the turn before kicking clear in the straight to salute by a length. Congratulations to all connections, onwards and upwards from here!
Slippin' Jimmy
Makes it 5 WINS from 9 Starts!!
Friday 2nd August - Coffs Harbour
Our chestnut champ did it again today at Coff Harbour making it 5 wins from his first 9 starts, this beautiful boy is taking his owners on some sort of a ride! Fully qualified now for his main target the Magic Millions Country Cup in January - time to fry some bigger fish!
Mr Bubbaluski
WINS On Debut!!
Saturday 27th July - Gold Coast
The Big BUBBA started favorite but did it the hard way! After missing the jump our boy was posted 3 wide and turned with all the chasing to do 3 lengths off the leaders. With his first ride in the HCR silks, Jock Michael Hellyer asked Mr Bubbaluski for an effort at the 200m and didn't he respond, checking himself out on the big screen as he flew by to take the win. Massive congratulations to the ownership group who were duly rewarded after waited patiently for their HCR yearling purchase to hit the track
All IN THE MIND
Worth the wait!!
Wednesday 24th July - Canterbury
All In The Mind rewarded his connections at Canterbury on Wednesday with an impressive win after a 16month hiatus from racing. Our classy import looked to have his run blocked in the straight until hoop Chad Schofield saw his chance and pounced! The path is now set as we aim this boy towards Royal Randwick and the $3 million The Big Dance!
SLIPPIN' JIMMY
Successful Interstate Raid!!
Thursday 18th July - Ipswitch
SLIPPIN' Jimmy solidified his reputation with a powerful performance on Grafton Cup Day, securing his fourth win in eight starts. Ridden in his first race outside Queensland by Jace McMurray, he was well-positioned throughout and overcame the persistent challenge of several challengers in the straight. The successful interstate venture has pushed his career earnings past $80,000 and taken him one step closer to qualifying for the prestigious Country Cup Final at the 2025 Magic Millions Carnival worth $500,00!!
Atmosphere
WINS on Ipswich Cup Day!!
Saturday 22nd June - Ipswitch
Angela Jones showed why she is one of the best front running jockeys in the game controlling the race to perfection. Hats off to Jack Bruce who had our boy primed for his first up run after 6 months off the scene.
It was a great thrill to win on Ipswich Cup day and what a day it was, we had over 30 owners on course and the roar certainly went up at the 100m. There were plenty of hugging and high fives and thats what racehorse ownership is all about. Was great to see.
Betterletmedance
Tough win in a photo!!
Wednesday 22nd May - Ipswitch
QLD's best hoop Jimmy Orman showed his class once again by putting her in the race from the outset despite the wide barrier. It was a ding dong battle in the straight where she fought on strongly to deny her rival in a photo! $142K returned in prize money for her ownership group from 11 starts and many more victories to come!
Slippin' Jimmy
Dominant Display on the Coast!!
Sunday 19th May - Sunshine Coast
Jumping from the inside gate, Jimmy made the most of a good draw to push forward to lead from the outset. He controlled the race despite the hot tempo and gave them the slip on the turn to push 4 lengths in front! Finishing 2 lengths clear of second and 4.3 lengths clear of third, Jimmy never looked like loosing and gave his owners their 3rd win from 6 starts.
Viadelamore
Determined Win!!
Saturday 18th May - Aquis Park -Gold Cost
Our boy jumped away well and got into a nice spot early where he got into a lovely rhythm on the fence through the early and middle stages of the race. They quickened prior to the home bend and his wheels spun for a few strides before he picked up the bridle in attempt to work through his gears.
Rounding the home turn Jag was able to steer him through a gap one off the fence where he kept building on his run to get his head in front right on the line. It was a good job to come out the right side of the photo given the second horse was carrying 3kgs less than him and I'm sure if the race went any further he would have kept his head in front.
Daytona
Goes Two to Their One!!
Wednesday 15th May - Ipswitch
From an awkward gate our boy jumped nicely and took his medicine, setting at the rear of the field in the initial stages. Ridden with patients, Ryan Maloney waited until the 500m before making his move, coming from 3rd last on the bend and swinging 7 wide his race looked done and dusted. That was until he hit the afterburners and flew home over the last furlong to get over the field in a photo! Seriously impressive finish worth taking another look at!
Slippin Jimmy
Gets The Job Done!!
Friday 3rd May - Kilcoy
An impressive turn of foot in the short straight at Kilcoy saw Slippin' Jimmy make amends in his latest start, bringing home the chocolates for connections for the second time in 5 starts. He was a asked a question on the bend sitting 2-3 lengths off the leader but answered it in no uncertain terms finishing off a patient ride from hoop Ryan Wiggans with a classy finish.
Thesecondatportsea
WINS AGAIN!!
Thursday 25th April - Sunshine Coast
An ANZAC Day to remember! She did it the hard way coming from last on the bend, on a heavy track but she was strong late and was given a peach of a ride along the fence by Damien Thornton.
The Jack Bruce team have delivered the goods with this mare winning 3 races this time in, including 2 Saturday metro wins - that's no mean feat!!
Intentional Lass
Wins it on the line!
Tuesday April 9th - Grafton Turf Club
Intentional Lass started a hot favourite from barrier 1 and a drop back from city grade following a brave effort at Eagle Farm last start. The hearts of connections were in their mouths on the turn with plenty of work still to do but she showed her big heart and staying ability to fight it out all the way to the line for the victory. Has been the pillar of consistency but racing without luck - will go onto bigger and better things now as she steps up in distance.

Who Ordered Dafish
Dafish Dominates
Monday April 1st - Ipswich Turf Club
Who Ordered Dafish showed his class with a powerful win on the Easter Monday public holiday. Coming from mid-pack C J Graham delivered a peach of a run to take the tiny window on offer and leave them in her dust! Onwards and upwards for this boy and his connections!
