Envy win moves Lees to training record
Envy Of All’s win at Ipswich has given Kris Lees a record for the most he has trained in a season.
Newcastle trainer Kris Lees has reached a milestone of the most winners he has had in a season after Envy Of All won at Ipswich.
With Jeff Lloyd aboard, the filly came from mid-field to score an impressive victory in the Cooney Three-Year-Old Handicap (1100m) on Saturday.
Lees had a double at Warwick Farm on Wednesday to move to 160-1/2 winners and Envy Of All lifted him to 161-1/2, which was half a win better than his previous best.
He is fifth on the Australian trainers premiership table.
Lees’s travelling foreman, Cameron Swan, says Envy Of All is a very promising filly with more wins in store.
Envy Of All will continue her winter campaign at Caloundra in two weeks.
