All Stand justifies short price at Muswellbrook

All Stand rewarded the faith of punters at Muswellbrook, delivering at short odds over 1000m.

ALL Stand justified his short price at Muswellbrook on Tuesday when breaking through for his maiden victory in emphatic fashion over 1000m.

Trained at Cessnock by Todd Howlett, All Stand was sent to the barriers as the $1.30 favourite under the guidance of Josh Adams and the three-year-old didn’t disappoint, cruising to the line to score by four lengths over Kennywyn and Shintastic.

Howlett said he was expecting a forward showing from the bay gelding at his second start, having been beaten narrowly at his only other start behind Miss Fisher at Muswellbrook on July 4.

“The horse that beat him at his first start goes well, so I wasn’t disappointed with the run and it gave me some confidence coming here today, I thought he’d run well,” Howlett told Horse Betting.

“I was very happy with the way he won, that’s what I was hoping he’d do but it doesn’t always work like that in horse racing so it’s good to have them step up and perform as you expect them to.”

With two starts for a win and a second now to his name, Howlett says he will likely head back to the bush to try and make it to on the trot with All Stand, commenting that he believes the son of I Am Invincible and Chelsea Lass has a bright future on the track.

“I haven’t made any great plans with him, he looks like he’s pulled up well but we’ll just get him home before I decide what’s next but I’d say we’ll just head back and try to get another race in the country before getting too far ahead of ourselves.

“They need race experience and he is still learning, but I am hopeful that he can go on from it now because he looks to be a nice horse.”

Howlett also took home a placing in race three with Hayden Boy finishing behind Magic Name and Tribuna.

His other charge, Magic Belinda, got back in the field in the second event but finished off well to grab fourth across the line.
