Trainer Steven Burridge was more concerned about getting a dry track than Ironchamp’s awkward gate ahead of the $70,000 Class 3 race over 1400m on Saturday, but needn’t have worried with the skies staying blue right through. The speedy five-year-old son of Glass Harmonium made the race his own from the start when he easily […]

Ultra-smart sprinter-miler Mr Malek was finally stripped of the tag of the best horse not to have won a Group race following his expected victory as the $17 favourite in the $150,000 Group 2 Stewards’ Cup (1600m) on Saturday. Identified as Group race material from Day 1, the athletic son of Swiss Ace lived up […]
Continue ReadingSeson has had his prizemoney snowball for his owner
After Seson scored a quickfire double for the Burridge-A’Isisuhairi combination (master and apprentice in a not-too-distant past), Burridge would doubtfully put the Dalghar three-year-old in the same league, but was still pleased with the purple patch of sorts he has struck. “Seson was at his first Polytrack race, but he trialled good on the surface […]

“Wealth Elite was disappointing at his last start, but Simon said he needed blinkers,” said Burridge. “That probably helped him today. He hit the line better. “The trouble with him is he gets behind and you need to ride him for luck. The blinkers helped him to concentrate better today.” The Brazilian-bred four-year-old by Midshipman […]
Continue ReadingThe Steven Burridge yard got a much-needed shot in the arm with a double courtesy of two mildly-fancied runners in Wealth Elite and Chalaza on Saturday.
Neither are world beaters, but the Australian handler still welcomed any numbers that can boost a win tally that has struggled to take off this year. On four winners before Saturday, with Split Second the latest picked up a month ago on April 24, Burridge has suddenly vaulted over six trainers (Leslie Khoo later passed […]

Progressive galloper Lim’s Craft produced a sizzling run to record a stylish win in Sunday’s $50,000 Super Ninetyseven 2013 Stakes, a Class 4 Division 1 race over 1200m. The Smart Missile four-year-old was at the same time registering back-to-back wins, while giving trainer Steven Burridge a perfect 100% record given he was his only runner […]
Continue ReadingAdipson off the mark at third try
Adipson has not taken too long to open his account in Singapore, even if the So You Think three-year-old had to dig deep into his untapped potential to get the nod in the $75,000 Restricted Maiden race over 1400m on Friday. Formerly with Newcastle trainer Kris Lees, albeit he never raced in Australia, Adipson gave a […]
