18 Aug Solar Burst appreciates Doomben

Toowoomba trainer Tony Sears’ confidence in his ability as a judge of racehorses was restored with former Victorian mare Solar Burst’s (Northern Meteor x Lekhani) win at Doomben.

Solar Burst ($9) came from last at the 600m to swamp the field in Wednesday’s Veuve Society Hcp (1650m) and again showed that some horses are not handling the new Eagle Farm racing surface.

It was a far cry from her first start for Sears, when Solar Burst ran ninth in a race at Eagle Farm two weeks ago.

David Moodie’s Contract Racing sent Solar Burst to Sears after he had success with their open company sprinter Pillar of Creation.

“I had trialled Solar Burst and thought she was close to a good thing at Eagle Farm. She went terribly and I thought gee, I am a bad judge,” Sears said.

“But back on a dry track today at Doomben she was too classy for them and she will win a better race.”

Solar Burst was born at Amarina Farm in 2011 and completed her early education there for breeders SF Bloodstock-AAP
