“But, realistically, it’s a very hard race to win as we’re competing against horses that cost up to $1 million from the sales.”
Ross has given punters an early lead preferring Mishani Explorer as his best hope in the Phelan Ready.
“Mishani Explorer won well at the Sunshine Coast last start but I thought our horse which ran third, Mishani Fearless, was a better chance that day,” Ross said.
“When you put these horses in two-year-old races any of them are capable of winning.”
In early markets Mishani Explorer is a $9.50 chance behind $1.14 hotpot Spywire.
In the Listed Calaway Gal, Tony Gollan’s Barbie’s Sister is favourite at $2.25.
