Impressive graduation final winner Robyns Playboy has earned himself a short spell.

The Ross Wilson-trained three-year-old broke his maiden when winning the $12,000 Nugget Final at Winton late last month.

And he did it impressively, reeling off a sizzling 26.8sec last 400m on an easy Winton track. 

The victory put the Shadow Play pacer in the early reckoning for this season’s Southern Supremacy Stakes qualifying and earned him a short spell, as well.

“He doesn’t turn three until late November so he is doing a pretty good job.

“I thought I would back off him and give him a wee spell.”

Robyns Playboy has placed in all three of his runs this season and has never finished further back than fourth in five career starts.
