Lot 69 in the upcoming Inglis sale. ANDERS/ HIGHLAND SECRETS.

Breezing in a time 11.03 into a 28km headwind, this son of electric sprinter ANDERS is a ready made 2 year old with plenty of upside.

Uncomplicated both at home and on the track, he gives his all and has a wonderful attitude to work. He has come to hand quickly and with ease.

We're confident he has plenty of fun pinned on the horizon for prospective buyers. Check him out here👇

Galant in defeat.
Just 0.10 second behind the G1 Golden Rose at Rosehill on Saturday 👀
Tony has pulled up well, and we’ll figure out his next move this week as the dust settles.

Fingers and toes crossed for Tony today 🤞🤞

Hawkesbury Race Club Limited trainer Ed O’Rourke is keen to set the record straight today & win his first race at a track where he once trained.

O’Rourke, who trained at Royal Randwick earlier in his career, has never won a race there, and is hoping to clinch a hat-trick with his talented sprinter Iron Man in a Benchmark 78 Handicap (1200m).

“I’ve had a winner on the Kensington track, and gone close a few times on the course proper,” O’Rourke said on Friday. Read more 👇 📸 Bradley_Photos O'Rourke Racing https://www.provincialracingnsw.com.au/post/o-rourke-chasing-randwick-first-with-talented-sprinter

Ed O’Rourke and Bryce Heys know they have to make the most of their best horses in their stables but have been happy to wait with Iron Man and Dancing Alone.

A good week 👌

They certainly aren’t all as good as the one past. But when the racing gods deliver some chocolates you sure do appreciate 🙏

5 runners for 2 placings and 2 wins.

Onwards and upwards (as well as sideways and backwards 🙃)

Hawkesbury Race Club Limited trainers Ed O‘Rourke and Terry Croft have clocked up the kilometres this week – and it has all been worthwhile.

The pair won races at Grafton’s July carnival during the week; O’Rourke with Twin Turbo (Zac Lloyd) and Croft with Hot Jive (Alysha Collett).

They returned home for further success; O’Rourke with Iron Man (pictured) at Rosehill Gardens on Saturday, and Croft with Royal Veloute on his home track on Sunday.

O’Rourke almost made it three winners in a few days when Barellan Bandit ($6.50) was narrowly beaten by Let Me Reign ($4) in the Hawkesbury closer. Read more 👇📸 Bradley_Photos O'Rourke Racing

EDWARD O’Rourke gave a confident pitch to champion apprentice Zac Lloyd to book him for Twin Turbo at Grafton today.

“I told him to make sure he took the mount because I expected him to win,” the Hawkesbury trainer revealed after the pair had combined to land the Class 2 Showcase Handicap (1600m) at the feature Ramornie Handicap meeting.

“Twin Turbo had run second at his last two runs at home, and he looked really well placed at Grafton.” Read more 👇 O'Rourke Racing Clarence River Jockey Club Hawkesbury Race Club Limited
