Top Sydney duo chasing more interstate success

12 January 2023

After feature success in Victoria last weekend, top Sydney duo Jason Grimson and Cameron Hart are chasing more.

Grimson has three starters in Saturday night’s Group 2 Shepparton Cup where Hart will drive last-start Inter Dominion winner I Cast No Shadow.

Although Hart has admitted he has a “soft spot” for Majestic Cruiser, I Cast No Shadow has the draw advantage of barrier two.

Majestic Cruiser, who will be driven by Kate Gath, has drawn outside the second row in 11 while Grimson’s other starter, Sicario, has drawn outside the front row in seven and will be driven by David Moran.

Grimson and Hart combined to win the Bendigo Cup with Major Meister last Saturday.

Fellow NSW pacer Art Tutor finished seventh in that Group 2 and will also go around in the Shepparton Cup.

The pacer is part of a small team trainer Joe Conolly and driver Seaton Grima are campaigning in Victoria.

Grima is usually a regular at Penrith meetings and will be missing from tonight’s card, however, Hart has six drives at the venue before venturing south on Saturday.
