Bryce Stanaway

Recommended Posts

Anyone know anything about Bryce Stanaway trainer in Country  Victoria  . He had three in the slugfest at Ararat today one scratched now , between them 275 odd starts for 4 wins , on Tuesday he has three in a Hamilton highweight 2200 maiden , one a 94 start maiden another 44 start maiden, He has Crafty Cruiser 157 starts still going at 12 . No one can accuse him of giving up on a horse , very slow horses  but he must take really good care of them. He has a Zoustar maiden as well , he has only 2 convictions.

From memory trained out of Paeroa.

That makes sense , scrolling through his runners he has mostly NZ bred . He must really know a horses legs ,imho  that's some real care shown to keep that many going for so long as they must get vetted well before race, Crafty Cruiser a mandatory vet check pre race  under the rules at 12 . Problem is they are very very slow . As has been said before the slow ones look after themselves  a bit .

Pretty sure he got into a bit of strife in Aus because he scratched 3 horses from Pakenham when there were no sandwhiches available in the trainers room.

May or may not have also got into strife in nz.

Now that's a guy I'd have a horse with , brilliant although rest assured under this case of scratching if it were my horse  I'd shake his hand but the  costs would come off what I'd owe him..  The economics of it all wrong  , he must have past a subway on the way for a sub of the day . Hope he gets one of these old pluggers home next few days sounds a good character .

Yep I remember that The sandwich plate in the trainers room was empty so Bryce spoke to I think the club president of Pakenham?? to see if they could get the plate refilled , from what I can remember the Club President reacted rather negatively and told Bryce if he didn't like it take your horses and get out and Bryce said sweet az and did just that .

I had a look at Laheeb , his 44 start maiden  . Dam Reggae had couple starts for Aiden O'Brien under Jamie Spencer before export to OZ  , couple of her siblings were pretty good for Ballydoyle . Laheeb went through ring at Easter Sales for 700k. The Snowden 's clearly from his 5 trials rumbled he weren't rapid so Bryce not guilty of training  the speed out him .700k would buy some sandwiches .

1 4 6 boxed should cover the trifecta in first  . He looks like he's got Laheeb going a bit , that ex Kiwi looks like there is  a  bit of life in  him and top one  going  ok . 

He filled last two places at Ararat today , both backing up Hamilton , maybe doing an Aiden O'Brien Magic Wand style job on them for Tuesday just clearing the lungs  .Winner San Remo , Frankel half brother to French Guineas winner and another good one , spent couple years at Ballydoyle before going round and round Ararat .

A couple of characters there Gubes! Was it Bryce who used to deliver horse feed in his horse  truck, dressed in bin liners and track suits (sweating for the ride)and always running  somewhere even with a bag of oats on his back?

Just caught an interview on Country Racing on the Aussie racing channel (note this is free to air!) - seems Bryce pulled all his horses out recently because the track was too hard, must have been incorrectly described before he left home, but he makes no apology for his decision and claimed very few of the runners that day have raced since. Hard case fellow, who knows how to look after the horses he has.
