Great to see popular Peter Snowden leading the national winners' tally. He's secured the trainers' premiership with 227.5 winners. PS says: 'It has been an unbelievable effort from a lot of good people right through the whole operation...When you're surrounded by good people good things happen.' Snowden is eight wins clear in the Sydney premiership from Chris Waller, who scored at Canterbury with Shawnee Girl and Pay And Play before the final three races were abandoned. Snowden has 97 winners and is desperate to hit the 100 mark by the end of the season on Saturday. This gives him 2 meetings, assuming Warwick Farm is not wiped out by rain on Friday.
The right spirit...The news is encouraging for the return to racing of Toowoomba star Spirit Of Boom. He's currently in Sydney for a double-banger mission - Sat week's Grp 3 San Domenico Stakes (1000m) at Randwick and then the Grp 3 Up And Coming Stakes (1200m) at Warwick Farm on Aug 21. Trainer Tony Gollan's long-range target is the Magic Millions Trophy (1400m) at the Gold Coast in January.
Peter Moody's smart import Ghostmilk is having a short break. She'll return to racing in late August for mares' races. The mudlark 6YO won three successive city races in Melbourne before just missing out in a photo-finish to Mr Unforgettable in the Listed Winter Stakes at Rosehill on July 17. The Grp 2 Stocks Stakes (1600m) at Moonee Valley on Sep 11 is a likely target for Ghostmilk.
