Troy Harris made a winning return at Cambridge on Wednesday when guiding the Clinton Isdale-trained Is That So (NZ) (Sufficient) to a 1-1/4 length victory in the Kingsclere Stables 970.

The 34-year-old jockey took a break from riding on raceday late last spring to give his body a well-deserved break.

Harris said he has got back on top of his weight and is enjoying being back out on the track.

“The body just needed a bit of a break from wasting, so I had a few months off and got the weight down,” Harris said.

“When the body says I need a break, I just have a break.

“I rode 57.5kg today so that is good at this time of year for me.

“I will just keep ticking along at that weight until spring time and then start going a bit lower.”

Harris was impressed with the performance of Is That So, who made it back-to-back wins on the polytrack surface on Wednesday.

“He is a nice horse,” Harris said. “He is pretty promising the way he won. He won there (Cambridge) last time so he looks like he is going places that horse.”
