Colless on Tyzone

GLEN Colless will ride Tyzone as the veteran jockey attempts to win the Listed Ramornie Handicap at Grafton for the first time.

Gold Coast trainer Toby Edmonds had planned to book James Orman for Tyzone in Wednesday’s Listed 1200m sprint but he will be overseas.

Edmonds said he was happy to book Colless who began his riding career in the NSW Northern Rivers.

“Glen is a multiple Group 1winning jockey and he has won a stack of races for us,” Edmonds said.

Tyzone won at the Gold Coast and Doomben before finishing second in the Listed Eye Liner Stakes (1350m) at Ipswich his last start.
