Blake Shinn is feeling confident about his upcoming ride on Drifting in Saturday’s Group 3 Quezette Stakes (1100m) at Caulfield after a recent jump-out at Flemington.
The Peter Snowden-trained filly, who won the Group 3 Magic Night Stakes (1200m) in the autumn, will be making her first appearance of the season from barrier three.
“She’s a really lovely filly, this girl,” Shinn told Racing.com.
“I jumped her out last Friday, and I was very impressed by the feel she gave me. Physically, she’s a really solid three-year-old, and mentally, she’s really there.
She’s got great gate speed, tactically she’s brilliant.
“I expect her to put herself in a great position from a good draw. This is a great line-up of fillies, but I think she’s a very talented horse.”
