Steparty, a notable dual stakes winner, will be absent from the upcoming Group 3 CS Hayes Stakes (1400m) at Flemington this Saturday.
This decision comes as his connections have chosen to give the colt a well-deserved break, intending for him to make a comeback later in the year.
With an impressive track record of five victories out of seven starts, Stepartry’s most recent performance saw him secure third place in the Group 3 Manfred Stakes (1200m) on a Good 4 track surface towards the end of last month. Trainer Paul Preusker, known for his strategic acumen, is said to prefer steering clear of fast racing surfaces for the time being.
This decision reflects the careful consideration and long-term planning undertaken by Stepartry’s team, prioritising the colt’s welfare and future success in the competitive realm of horse racing.
