A rails run in the home straight enabled Warrior Within (King Cugat) to score an in yesterday’s $150,000 Grafton Cup (Listed) over 2350 metres.
Paul Hammersley positioned Warrior Within towards the rear and along the rail early on and he was still well back approaching the turn for home. Staying near the inside into the straight Warrior Within was able to cut the corner through on the inside of Gold In Dubai (Desert Sun) to score by three-quarters of a length with Shuffle The Cash (Dash For Cash) staying on well for third.
Warrior Within is trained by Bruce Hill, who spent 10 years as foreman for Gerald Ryan before setting up his own stable. “Things worked out and I’m proud of the horse,” Hill said. “The firmer ground helped him. It’s brilliant.”
Hammersley admitted he was worried about Warrior Within’s ability to get the distance yesterday. “He struggles at the trip so I had to take an inside shortcut somewhere and luckily enough we got. This is the biggest Country Cup I have won so far. It is good to come here and finally have some luck for a change.”
