Doughty made it back to the track last Saturday to watch another of his horses run at Doomben but the extremely hot conditions meant he missed seeing Husson’s , trained by his wife Kelly, win at Doomben on Wednesday.

“Gary got back to the races last Saturday but it took a bit out of him and he missed Wednesday but he hopes to be there on Saturday,” said.
