Melbourne Cup second favourite kicks off Spring campaign in Gl Underwood Stakes
-
Sir Delius will take a step towards his spring goals when he lines up in the Underwood Stakes on Sept 20.
The Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott stable will chase their third success in four years in the A$1 million (S$849,000) Group 1 Caulfield contest.
The imported galloper, who was a three-time winner for French trainer Jean-Claude Rouget, lines up for his new stable in the 1,800m weight-for-age event as they look to repeat the efforts of the now-retired Alligator Blood in 2022 and 2023.
The first of Alligator Blood’s victories came when the race was run at Sandown on the day following the AFL (Australian Football League) Grand Final while it moved back to Caulfield the following year.
Waterhouse and Bott did not have a runner in the 2024 renewal when the Chris Waller-trained Buckaroo took out the race.
Buckaroo is back again this time and is the 4-1 second elect behind Sir Delius, who is currently the even-money market leader.
