On the Road to ID18
VICTORIANS San Carlo and Motu Meteor put their names
firmly in the picture of the TAB Inter Dominion Pacing
Championship with Trots Country Cup victories.
While Motu Meteor was an eye-catcher in winning the
Weirs Supa IGA St Arnaud Pacing Cup for trainer-driver
Kerryn Manning, none dropped jaws liked the gelding af-
fectionately known as Murray.
San Carlo was extraordinary in winning the United Petro-
leum Yarra Valley Pacing Cup, sitting three and two-wide
outside highly-rated Im The Boss before muscling his way
to a stunning victory for trainer Stephen O’Donoghue and
driver Rebecca Bartley.
“He took himself to the front, and as soon as I pulled the
plugs he took off,” Bartley said.
“He was so strong right to the line. We’re super happy with
him.”
Yarra Valley’s cup day, held on Victoria Oaks Day, also fea-
tured a key trotting win for ID18 contender Sky Petite, who
saluted for Burrumbeet trainer Michael Stanley and young
reinsman Ryan Duffy.
