Dominate Sydney trainer Jason Grimson has his target set for Bathurst’s Shirley Turnbull Memorial on Boxing Day.
The Inter Dominion-winning conditioner has three horses nominated in the Group 2 feature this Sunday night.
Two of his starters, Somebeachshadow and Egodan, are both last-start Menangle winners.
Grimson will also produce talented mare Rubies For Tash, who is resuming from a spell having not raced since June 26.
The 24-time winner has had six starts under Grimson’s care for two wins, which included a personal best winning mile rate of 1:51.4, and two placings.
Grimson recently reached 200 winners in his training career when his promising two-year-old Sugar Apple won a heat of the Breeders Plate last week.
Sugar Apple looks one of the main fancies in the $30,600 final that is also taking place on Sunday at Leeton.
The iForm team have put together the best bets for today:
Bathurst best bet
Race 1: Sportingjoy (3)
Handy youngster who will take some stopping following a brave Penrith defeat.
Bathurst next best
Race 7: Toya Lombo (9)
Showed enough when resuming to make his presence felt in a tough race.
