The Annabel Neasham stable is hopeful lightly raced four-year-old Crazy Brave can live up to his famous pedigree at Eagle Farm on Tuesday.
Crazy Brave – a Bailey Wheeler mount - lines up for only his seventh start in the Class 1 Handicap over 1400 metres.
A son of dual Group 1-winner Zoustar, Crazy Brave’s grand-dam Sansadee was the dam of Group 1-winner and Group 1-producer Brazen Beau.
Brazen Beau started 12 times for five wins and four seconds.
Brazen Beau's career included Group 1 victories in the Coolmore Stud Stakes and Newmarket Handicaps at Flemington before finishing his career in England.
Crazy Brave was bred at Peachester Lodge in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland by Linda and Graham Huddy.
The Huddys are among the nation’s biggest owners.
The Huddys were originally based at Mount Isa before they sold their earth moving operation in 2008 and relocated six years later to Peachester Lodge.
They enjoyed great success with a number of top class horses including former Queenslander, Shoot Out.
Shoot Out won 10 races, including five Group 1s.
Shoot Out claimed the Australian Derby, Randwick Guineas, All Aged Stakes and two Chipping Norton Stakes in Sydney.
“We race a couple of horses for the Huddys in Brisbane and Sydney and we’ve had some success together,” Annabel Neasham’s Brisbane stable manager Todd Pollard said.

“We won the Gosford Guineas for the Huddys with Anavinci last year.”
Crazy Brave’s only win in six starts was in maiden company at Eagle Farm in May and he is having only his third run back from a winter break.
At his last appearance, Crazy Brave was well-supported when he finished third to the Tony Gollan-trained I Am Takingthelot in a 1350 metre Class 1 Plate at Ipswich on October 18.
“He’s been racing well and won his maiden at this track over the same distance,” Pollard said.
“He’s been a casual horse so we’re putting blinkers on him to spark him up a bit.
“He only does what he has to so I’m hoping the blinkers will make a difference.”
