By Jonny Turner The passion matched the performance when Outback Man ran to a debut victory at Ascot Park on Saturday. The three-year-old led throughout in what was effectively a repeat of his excellent trial win on the same track earlier this month, when scoring for trainer Tony Stratford and driver Blair Orange.

Solidify looks both Sharp and Smart
Graeme and Debbie Rogerson hope that it is a case of lightning striking twice after Solidify (NZ) (Redwood) put his rivals to the sword when winning the Decise Electrical and Control 2YO (1200m) at Te Rapa on Saturday. The son of Redwood invoked comparisons with his year older stablemate Sharp ‘N’ Smart (NZ) (Redwood), who in addition to being by the same sire showed raw ability at two. Ridden by Ryan Elliot, Solidify came from beyond midfield to score by nearly two lengths despite showing greenness. “He was unlucky at…
