Veteran trainer Ashley McDowall is wary about the chances of unbeaten youngster Molly Blazer continuing the perfect start to her career at The Meadows on Saturday night.
Molly Blazer, a daughter of Mepunga Blazer and Mepunga Rosie, bred by McDowall’s great mate and GRV Hall of Fame member Barry Smith, has created a buzz in winning her first two starts at her home track of Warrnambool.
“We’re more than happy with her. We’re over the moon,” said McDowall, who’s based at Nullawarre.
“She’s started off good but she’s stepping up to the big time at The Meadows and I’m not too sure how she will handle it.
“I’m not getting carried away but looking forward I think we’ve got something that goes okay.
“Barry (Smith) picked her out for me and we bought her at three months of age. Barry and I have been best mates for 50-plus years and I think he’s looked after me pretty well with her!
“We only bought the one but the whole litter has been very good. Enter The Son won at The Meadows today (Wednesday) in 29.89s.”
Molly Blazer will add plenty of early interest to The Meadows card when she chases her third straight win, exiting box one in the second event to jump at 6.59pm.
