Expatriate New Zealand trainer John Sargent fancies his chances of further classic success at Randwick.

 

Gr.1 Australian Oaks hope Luvaluva  - Bradley Photography

He won the 2012 Gr.1 Queensland Oaks (2400m) with Quintessential, the Gr.1 VRC Oaks (2400m) with Kirramosa a year later and in 2015 he produced Gust Of Wind to win the Gr.1 Australian Oaks (2400m), a race he has Luvaluva in prime order for on Saturday.

The Kiwi-bred daughter of Mastercraftsman produced an impressive final trial when she carried 60kg to win the Gr.3 Adrian Knox Stakes (2000m) last weekend.

“She's done very well considering it was a weight record for the race," Sargent said. “She's got a great constitution, no injury problems and I think you'll see a very good horse in the spring as a four-year-old too.”
