Back in the Top End for the winter.
New stable purchase Krusty a Warwick Farm winner in Sydney takes out the first leg of the 2017 NT triple crown by winning the Guineas.
Ridden by Paul Denton settled at the back of the field, Krusty motored down the outskirts of the dirt track at Fannie Bay to take out the feature narrowly.
Down inside the final two hundred the two leaders had kicked and looked to have the feature at their mercy, before Krusty's barn storming finishing sprint.
Brown who was himself still in Melbourne, watched his new stable up and coming star far away from the warm Darwin winter. Wife Elisha and former NT apprentice of the year Alana have taken the Darwin winter trip to escape the cold Melbourne mornings and they had the horse in fine order for today's run.
Alana jut loves this horse and has been his track work rider whilst in Darwin.
We were quietly confident following his debut run on the track ridden by Stephen Brown Junior. His debut was an encouraging run being caught wide but finishing off the race nicely over the 1300, he relished the fast speed and the step up in trip.
We will race him onto the Derby and then weigh up our options if we elect to run in the Darwin Cup or save him for the bigger sights of Flemington.
