Photo: Bruno Cannatelli A talented team of four runners at Flemington on Saturday will try to add to the momentum that Te Akau Racing has built up through the first 12 months of its Victorian base. Te Akau’s Cranbourne stable opened in late September of last year, and by the end of the 2023-24 season, trainer Mark Walker had recorded 24 wins from just 124 runners on that side of the Tasman. Te Akau’s Australian stable…

Pinstriped will face tough competition from the likes of Mr Brightside, Antino, Pride Of Jenni, and interstate challengers Via Sistina and Atishu. However, Jusufovic remains confident that the seven-time winner is poised for his best campaign yet. “He’s…

(Photo by George Sal/Racing Photos) Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young are optimistic that their imported stayer Mostly Cloudy can return to winning form in this Saturday’s Group 3 Archer Stakes (2500m) at Flemington, which would secure him an unballoted entry into the Melbourne Cup (3200m). Although Mostly Cloudy hasn’t won since September last year, his consistent efforts have kept him competitive. After a solid first-up performance at Caulfield, where he finished fourth behind Young Werther, Busuttin is hopeful for a breakthrough. “He doesn’t know how…

Waller is optimistic she can replicate that performance this weekend. “At that level, it…
