It was another big day for Bel Esprit with 4 winners \u2013 taking his 8 day tally to 20 \u2013 and each of the Saturday quartet deserve a wrap.<\/span><\/div>\n
Patrick Payne\u2019s gutsy 3YO, Hot Lover (ex. Concluding by Kenny\u2019s Best Pal) has now won 5 from 10 after scoring convincingly at Flemington \u2026 the evergreen Brewski (ex. Summer Magic by Eagling) picked up win No. 6 for Bill & Symon Wilde \u2026 and Gaelstorm (ex. Blow by End Sweep) \u2013 trained by Jamie Edwards and Bruce Elkington \u2013 had 3 lengths to spare at Cranbourne.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

But it was the win of Clevadude (ex. Jezeera by Jetball) that really had the tongues wagging.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

Stepping out for the first time, the 2YO was never out of third gear and absolutely cruised to the line under a tight hold from Noel Callow \u2013 as one wag put it, the win was as soft as ice cream left out in the midday sun.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

Indeed, such was the calibre of the win that Hore-Lacy \u2013 who has put the polish on brilliant 2YOs such as Canny Lad and Redoute\u2019s Choice (to name just two) \u2013 said post race that Clevadude may well be the best horse he\u2019s \u2018eva\u2019 trained.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

Hore-Lacy paid $225,000 for the Eliza Park homebred at the 2012 Gold Coast Magic Millions Yearling Sale, topping the summer session and thereby making the Bel Esprit youngster eligible for the $2 million Magic Millions 2YO Classic on 12 January.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

There\u2019s a trip to Moonee Valley planned first, but based on the Cranbourne curtain raiser, this bloke really appears to be going places.\n<\/p>\n
