Vibrato continues sharp trial form
The Waikato Stud-bred Vibrato continues to impress at the trials with further success today at Te Awamutu.
The son of Sacred Falls also won on his home track at Cambridge earlier this month.
Anticipation is growing as the juvenile edges closer to his first race day appearance for Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman.

His dam is by Pins and the pedigree boasts the Group 1 winners Final Destination and Irish Fling.
