Austin Racing

Lightly raced 4yo Rotho Bro brought up his second win in just nine starts when taking out a 1400m Class 1 event at Orange on Monday.
Starting equal favourite, Rotho Bro dropped well behind the field on settling and looked out of the picture, only tacking on at about the 500 metre point. He then commenced a huge run on the turn, sweeping down the middle of the track for jockey Louise Day to win by 1 and a half lengths, to the amazement of the race caller!
An exciting win! Congratulations to connections, which include his breeder, Jim Critchley.

While showing plenty of promise in his previous seven starts including city form, it was very pleasing to have the big five year old get the monkey off his back with a well deserved win. Simply Nutbush settled well in third position over the 1400m metre trip at Canberra and once straightening, angled out sharply for Shaun Guymer to get around the heels of the two abreast leaders to go on to beat the favourite by 0.8 lengths going away. Congratulations to his owners the Hobdays!

SIMPLY NUTBUSH Cracks His Maiden

At just her fourth start for the Austin stable, Baycat brought up her second win for new connections, taking out a 1000 metre dash at Orange. Ridden by apprentice Olivia Chambers, she sat third on the fence for most of the trip, and when others behind her made their runs, she held her position and took a gap to fight out the finish with the favourite, Missile Defence, scoring by a nose.
Congratulations to the ownership group!

BAYCAT Stalks and Wins

Three year old filly Zou Royal looks to have a bright future, with a commanding win at Bathurst at her second start. The big filly easily hit the lead after jumping and dictated the pace for the 1100 metre trip. On straightening, she kicked away and with jockey Matthew Cahill checking over his shoulder a number of times, it was obvious she was going to canter in, ears pricked.
An exciting ride for her owners, who include Jarrod&rsquo;s family and some loyal clients.

ZOU ROYAL Scores at Just Her Second Start

Tried horse purchase BAYCAT showed she was a canny buy when wining first-up for Austin Racing Stables at Canberra on 19 September.
The four-year-old daughter of Blue Point (Ire) shot to the lead on jumping over the 1000m trip and was never headed, easing down to win by 1.25 lengths.
She looks to be set to provide a very enjoyable experience for her ownership group!

BAYCAT Couldn't be Caught!

Five year old Pariah gelding CASH ME brought up his fifth career win when scoring at Hawkesbury on Sunday. Showing a healthy dislike for wet tracks, all his wins have been on the Good, which has been hard to find in his last few starts! The Good 4 and 1500m was right up his alley. Given 61kg by the handicapper, apprentice Olivia Chambers took 2 kilos off his back.
Sitting on the rail just behind the leaders, Cash Me slipped inside the leaders and pulled away in the long Hawkesbury straight to win by three quarters of a length.
Congratulations to his big ownership group!

CASH ME Claims the Prize

A nice win at Cowra on 5 July gave her owner / breeder Jim Critchley another winner in the Austin Racing stable. Given the huge impost of 63kg, engaging apprentice Jessica Brookes took 2 kilos off the little mare&rsquo;s back.
Bowling forward from the 1100m start, she sat one out one back, commencing her run at the top of the straight to score by just under half a length on the Heavy track.
Congratulations Jim!

DAME ANNIE Victorious at Cowra

Bonny grey mare Elegant Empress followed up two creditable runs in the city this campaign with an assertive win at Newcastle on 14 June.
She was caught three wide for the trip in the small field of seven, but once Jess Taylor pushed the &lsquo;go&rsquo; button in the straight, she sprinted away to win by a length over the 900 metre trip.
Elegant Empress has now had 19 starts for four wins and a further six placings for $122,725, all over 900 to 1000 metres. This win was on a Heavy 8, with her other wins being on Good and Soft, demonstrating her adaptability to any surface.
Congratulations to her ten strong ownership group!

ELEGANT EMPRESS Scores at Newcastle

Having just his second career start, 3 year old gelding Rotho Bro faced the starter at Mudgee after an encouraging first-up third at Goulburn on debut.
He jumped well before jockey Jeff Penza settled him third on the rail over the 1100 metre trip. Once they turned into the straight, he zipped up the rail and drew away for an impressive 3.2 length win.
Rotho Bro was bred by good client James Critchley, who remains in the ownership.
