Cavanough Duo's Got What It Takes For Aberdeen Cup (Muswellbrook Sunday)

By John Schell

Scone horseman Brett Cavanough is banking on race fitness and abilities to handle a wet track for his strong team of horses engaged to contest events at Muswellbrook on Sunday.

The top trainer has high hopes for his pair of runners in the Shorty Cribb Aberdeen Cup (1280m) when Two Ya Got, to be ridden by Mikayla Weir, and Indfference, with Mitchell Bell in the saddle, go around.

They'll have to carry 64.5kg and 64kg respectively in the Benchmark 82 handicap.

Trainer Brett Cavanough.

“Two Ya Got is rock hard fit and loves a wet track,” said Cavanough.

“He won the Town Plate at Wellington on the heavy four starts ago and has finished second in two of his three runs since then.

“He’s up in the weights which is the main concern, but he gets conditions to suit and that gives him a good chance.”

Cavanough has Indifference lining up against Two Ya Got on the back of a resuming eighth at Scone in the Country Cup over the two-day carnival when he was first-up from a spell.

“He’s not really a [1280m] horse but his resuming run was good, and he also goes well on wet tracks,” Cavanough said.

“He’ll be hitting the line well, I’d like to think.”

Cavanough had Navy Steel and Sirius Flyer engaged to run in the JTS Realty Country Boosted Class 2 Handicap (1450m).

He said Navy Steel would not run and instead head for a spell, but Weir would ride last start winner Sirius Flyer.

“She won on the heavy on the Beaumont at Newcastle three starts ago,” Cavanough said.

“Was below her best at Armidale following that but was back to her best winning at Quirindi last start when she beat Divine Bene which has won since.

“She has a sticky gate but should run well again.”

Cavanough will round out the day with Water Lad (Braith Nock) and Twilight Rock (Mitchell Bell) lining up in the Snowden Racing Benchmark 66 Handicap (1000m).

“Again, they are both hard fit and the wet track should suit them,” said Cavanough.

“Water Lad is up in weight after running well in harder grade last time, while Twilight Rock is up in class but has good wet form.”
