The Group 2 Chelmsford Stakes (1600m) at Randwick on Saturday is likely to mark the start of another spring campaign for dual Group 1 winner Huetor.
The now eight-year-old, trained by Peter Snowden, showed promise in a barrier trial over 1200 metres on Friday, recovering well from a slow start to finish fifth, 3.7 lengths behind Deny Knowledge.
“He is fresh and well, and I’m looking forward to getting him out to a mile-and-a-half this preparation,” Snowden commented.
“Where we get to, we’ll see how he goes along the way, but there are some nice options through the spring.
“Every preparation we’ve had him, he has won or run some really good races.
“He is a two-time Group 1 winner, so he owes us nothing, but he keeps performing every time he comes into work.
“Hopefully, he keeps going that way, and we can pick a nice race up with him over the spring or autumn.”
