Trainer Mick Price is confident Ready For Victory will be more tractable going clockwise for the second time in the G1 ATC Sires’ Produce Stakes (1400m) at Randwick on April 4.

The More Than Ready colt was a handful for jockey Nick Hall when he veered towards the outside rail in the G1 Golden Slipper Stakes (1200m) last Saturday.  Despite losing valuable ground in the straight, he still finished fourth within two lengths of the winner Vancouver.

“It was a super run and it’s a pity he raced erratically,” Price said.  “I will change his gear and maybe try a ring bit and blinkers.

“We’ve kept him here in Sydney and he pulled up really well.  I’m sure he will continue to improve and handle the extra 200 metres.”

Ready For Victory (2c More Than Ready – Crillon by Zabeel) earned a start in the Golden Slipper after a brilliant winning debut in the LR Festival Of Racing Stakes (1000) at Flemington on March 7.

He is from a half-sister to G1 AJC Champagne Stakes winner Meurice and was a $240,000 buy for Eliza Park International owner Cheung Ting Kong at the 2014 Gold Coast Magic Millions.

More Than Ready sired 2008 ATC Sires’ Produce Stakes winner Sebring and the Vinery champion’s latest star can also cement a start at stud in this year’s second-leg of the Sydney 2YO Triple Crown.
