News - REDWOOD (GB)

Progressive four-year-old Rock On Wood remains unbeaten in his current campaign after scoring his biggest career victory in Thursday’s Listed Manawatu ITM Anzac Mile (1600m) at Awapuni.

After splitting Gingernuts and Jon Snow in the NZ Derby in March 2017, much was expected of Rising Red, but he came out of that race with an injury that kept him out of racing for 12 months.

Romancer’s home track victory at Ruakaka on Saturday drew a celebration from afar.

Patience is paying dividends for supporters of the Westbury Stud-stallion Redwood (GB), with the Group One-winning son of High Chaparral starting to hit his straps as a sire.
