Star reinsman Chris Lewis has been snapped up to drive Master Jaxon by owner-breeder John Bell and Collie trainer David Hunter in the $25,000 Kerry Clarke Westbred Four and Five-Year-Old final at Gloucester Park on Friday night.
Master Jaxon has drawn awkwardly at barrier seven in the 2130m event, but Lewis, fresh from landing a treble at Gloucester Park on Tuesday night, has excellent prospects of overcoming that disadvantage.
Lewis will be handling Master Jaxon for the first time in a race. He replaces Stuart McDonald, who has driven the four-year-old in both his starts for Hunter, but is now serving a term of suspension.
