A Rare Trip To The City
Colac trainer, Mark Young, rarely comes to the city these days, by his own admission he hasn’t had a horse good enough to bring down.
He wasn’t sure if Dynamic Day was the right one either, she had been to Flemington previously when finishing second last over a 1000 metres down the straight.
She showed vast improvement when finishing third over 1200 metres earlier this month at Swan Hill.
There was no great confidence about the stable, hence she drifted from $19 to $41, while the odds on favourite, Kryptonian, had stormed home to win easily at Ballarat, was never in the hunt at Flemington.
She could easily win again on what she showed on Saturday, at last the two year olds are being stretched out in distance, which should suit her.
Mark Young is no stranger to Flemington, it has not been quite so frequent, not like the days when he trained Secret Flyer, he was a straight six specialist, generally coming from near last with a withering run.
Dynamic Day was ridden the perfect race by Dean Yendall, he had to do the hard yards before he was fully accepted as a jockey in the city.
