Robert Smerdon is confident his Caulfield winner Breitling will develop into a sprinh star. He says: 'We rate him pretty highly.

Blake Shinn is out for a week after pleading guilty to careless riding in the Winter Stakes at Rosehill... Shinn allowed his mount Adnocon to shift in on the line, a move which caused interference to Gergis and O'Crikey. Stewards handed Shinn a five meeting ban, which sidelines him from Sunday week before he returns to the saddle on Aug 1.
