Blue Sky At Night has defied double-digit odds to win both of New Zealand’s biggest 2400m handicaps this season, adding Saturday’s Gr.3 Eagle Technology Avondale Cup at Ellerslie to her victory in the Gr.3 Waikato Cup in December.
Former jumps jockey Reece Cole has enjoyed his transition into a career as a trainer and celebrated his first win in that role at Avondale last Saturday.
