Tara Madgwick - Wednesday Apr 8

Night Agent is the name of a pretty good TV show on Netflix and also a promising racehorse with the three year-old gelding by Brutal scoring his first metro victory at Hawkesbury on Wednesday.

Trained by Kris Lees and ridden by Tom Sherry, Night Agent was stepping up in grade to a Benchmark 72 event over 1500m and was the top elect for punters.

He relished the added trip to surge home along the inside and win by half alength and has now won three of five starts earning over $100,000.

Newgate Farm based Brutal has had a couple of stakes-winners this season in Sentimental Legend and Harlem Queen, plus Group placed Bird Whistle.
