CHASING GREATER GLORY

Star 4YO wins local feature on road to Sydney

RACING: Clifford Park just might’ve witnessed the start of something special.

Apache Chase ($4.20) lived up to the hype and the favourite tag with a dogged victory in the $150,000 Listed Weetwood Handicap (1200m).

The Desleigh Forster-trained gelding is on a well-documented path towards the $7.5m Golden Eagle in Sydney next month, and added a fourth black type win
