‘ The Guys’ have double chance
THE Bryan and Daniel Guy training partnership has had plenty of success since forming 14 months ago and has a genuine chance of a first Saturday- class metropolitan double at Doomben.
The father- and- son team formed their partnership in September last year and have had 41 winners.
Daniel Guy said the stable had gone well considering it didn’t have many city- class horses.
“All stables have those times when you don’t have too much heavy ammo,” Guy said.
“But we have been building up our younger stock and we have high hopes for them.”
Two of those horses are three- year- old Nashville Skyline who runs in Saturday’s No Cracks Plumbing Handicap ( 1600m) and two- year- old Animal Spirits, an acceptor in the Sky Racing Handicap ( 1200m) at Doomben.
Nashville Skyline was a Gold Coast winner first- up and then finished third at the Sunshine

Coast last start. “The ThreeYear- Old on Saturday is a strong race but we are getting a bit of weight off some good horses,” Guy said.
“The 1600 metres will suit Nashville Skyline.
“But we plan to get her out to 1800 metres next time and then I think you will really what she can do.”
Animal Spirits beat top twoyear- old Blue Book in a trial and then was a well- beaten third behind that horse in her first start at Doomben.
