Bel Show, described by his trainer, Henry Dwyer, as mentally immature, has learnt a lot since finishing eighth in his recent start at Bendigo and powering home at Flemington to win in runaway fashion.

He was friendless in the market place; obviously he has caught a lot by surprise, including his connections who were not complaining.

It will now be back to the drawing board for Henry Dwyer, the gelding is lightly raced having just the six starts for three wins, Saturday was his first city win

He looks the dead set sprinter, he came from a long way back in the field, and certainly has a sprinters pedigree being by Bel Esprit from Vegas Show by Keltrice.

Another winner for Bel Esprit, he is getting plenty of winners but not the recognition that he so richly deserves.

There are plenty of imports about that are not within a bull’s roar of him, the second highest progeny earning sire ever to stand in Victoria, yet hardly rates a mention.

Sold for $9,000, something wrong with his hock, it didn’t stop him from winning a Blue Diamond Stakes or a Doomben Ten Thousand, sired the best sprinter in the world in Black Cavair.
