Mark Du Plessis won two trials on Hezthewonforus and he expected a similar result at the colt’s race day debut Avondale on Wednesday.
The Karaka-based jockey’s judgement was on the money when he partnered the Bruce Wallace and Allan Peard-trained son of Sufficent to a runaway victory in the Avondale Sunday Markets 1400m.
“I didn’t think I would be in front from barrier rise, but he’s learned from the trials and won like I thought he could,” Du Plessis said. “He’s a big baby, but he’s got a fair motor.”
