It’s been over 2 years since his last win, but a fit and healthy The Widder demonstrated his huge potential with a come from last win at Belmont on Saturday. Patience has been the key for the Street Cry gelding and some recent great advice from leading Hong Kong trainer Caspar Fownes has also gone a long way to helping The Widder now reach almost $60,000 in stakes.
It was an excellent ride by Jarrod Noske who showed great patience to settle The Widder at the tail of the field and then pulled him out wide at the turn and he flew home hard to win by 2 lengths pulling away in a great result for owner Mercon Racing (Nick Condidorio).
