Favourite crowned in Anniversary Cup

16 November 2013 - Jazz King made it six victories from seven starts this season with a popular victory in the Tradelink Anniversary Cup at Lord's Raceway last night.
Driven by Greg Sugars the Shaun Kittel trained Jazz King was always in contol and safely held The Cavalier (Sammy Kilgour) who tested his motor most of the way to score by six metres. Jazz King is raced by Greg Fleming and was bred by Kerry Winazr and Lynne Pocock and was the last horse that local great, the late Ron Pocock trained. Giveusagrin (Daryl Douglas) finished third. 
Dick Lee scored an upset win in the Travelcentre Bendigo Veteran Drivers Trot. His drive, Montana Sky was the outsider in the field and had not won for three years prior to last night's win. The 9 year old mare is trained by Kevin Hill at Heathcote and it was the second win from 45 starts for the daughter of Wagon Apollo.
Lee who has had a string of champions in his stable including the multiple Derby winner Rufus Young Blood and Bendigo Cup winner Rhodonite said he loves driving trotters and he was thrilled to be invited to drive in the feature and to win the trophy was a bonus.
