$30K IN VOBIS SIRES BOOST VOUCHERS UP FOR GRABS AT GEELONG

Wednesday’s Geelong program sees the first three VOBIS Sires Boost progeny of the 2022/23 season race for $30,000 in VOBIS Sires Boost Vouchers.

The DMB Contracting 3YO Fillies Maiden Plate (Race 3) is not only worth the initial $37,500 in prize money, but also carries $12,000 in Super VOBIS bonuses, $20,000 in VOBIS Gold bonuses along with $30,000 in VOBIS Sires Boost vouchers, making the race to the value of $99,500 for those eligible horses.

Brazen Lady (Brazen Beau), Miss Sassy (Written Tycoon) & Miss Subtly (Rich Enuff) are all VOBIS Sires progeny who are VOBIS Gold nominated, therefore eligible to claim the VOBIS Sires Boost vouchers, all of which is given to the winning owners.

Brazen Lady, by Darley Victoria’s Brazen Beau is on debut for trainer Matthew Ellerton, bred by Contract Racing. With some strong jumpout form behind her, she will give her owners a great sight.

Miss Sassy is by one of Australia’s Champion Sires, Written Tycoon, who has had two career starts, last seen running fifth behind stakes winner Cannonball. Trained by Lindsay Park, she can’t be discounted.

Miss Subtly, by Woodside Park’s Rich Enuff was beaten by a very good one on debut at Sale and will be greatly improved from the outing, bred and raced by OTI Racing. Currently the $4 second market elect, this could be a perfect start for Rich Enuff in the VOBIS Sires Boost program.

This is the beginning of a very exciting time in Victoria that will see more reward for owners supporting the VOBIS scheme and more investment into Victorian breeding & sales.
