Silent Achiever blooming in Sydney

27 February 2015

Roger James can’t fault Silent Achiever going into Saturday’s Gr.1 Chipping Norton Stakes at Warwick Farm.

“She looks in magnificent order and probably as strong as I’ve ever seen her,” the Cambridge trainer said.

“She’s thrived and I’ve kept her as fresh as possible to see if we can get a Group One mile.”

After Saturday, Silent Achiever will defend her Gr.1 Ranvet Stakes crown at Rosehill and James will then decide on a start in the Gr.1 BMW a week later or wait for the Gr.1 Queen Elizabeth Stakes on April 11.

Shailer pair building nicely into spring campaigns

WS-breds Justin Case and Magice contributed to a memorable season for Kris Shailer in his return to the training ranks last term, and he is hoping they can continue their form into the new season.
