The three-year-old has actually been a discovery this fall, not least of all for his fitness instructor Michael Freedman who initially had him slated as a sprinter-miler. “I entirely ballsed it up,” Freedman stated. “I had him pegged as a 1400, miler type early on. I sent him to the Gold Coast for a maiden up there and I stated to the owners, ‘look it’s a $250,000 maiden, I do not understand if this chap is ever going to run for $250 once again’. “He ran excellent up there and I believe that journey away did do him some excellent. Now we’ve stepped his ranges up he has actually simply enjoyed it and made me appear like a moron.” While the very first 3 races at Rosehill were won by horses near the fence and on speed, Wymark ($2.70 wagering fav) settled a number of lengths off the speed and made his run down the centre of the track.
