“She is a full sister to the dam of Shooting for Gold who is one of the best horses in Brisbane.”īoth Stop the Rot’s dam Wild Romance and Shooting for Gold’s mum Ambers Crown are by Excites out of the dam Bovespa. “I’ve only had two out of her to race and they’ve both won,” Hanna said. Wild Romance won her only race in November 2015 at Warwick, ironically beating a horse ridden by Stephanie Lacy. “The dam only won one race but she broke her jaw when she was getting broken in and we never got it right.” Stop the Rot ($9) powered home to win by half a length from favourite Autumn Daze ($3.50) with Emmy Regina ($12) a short head further away in third. “She rode him last week when he ran second and then she rode him today.” Hanna said jockey Stephanie Lacy was crucial to Stop the Rot’s maiden win in the TAB Venue Mode Plate (800m) last Wednesday at Ipswich racetrack. “You’ve definitely got to have the person on them that can understand what you’re trying to tell them to do.”
“You’ve got to have the right rider,” he said. He said it was easier said than done to do that but it came down to the jockey. “Now we ride him from behind and he’s a completely different horse.” The first couple of races he just went that hard that he just pulled up he ran out of puff. “As long as they have ability, it’s just getting them to settle down. Some horses take longer to grow up than others. “He’s still only lightly raced so he’s still learning. “He’s a hot-heated horse but he’ll get better with age,” he said.
The trainer said Stop the Rot, who he bred – hence the JH brand on the gelding’s near-side shoulder – was quite a slow-maturing type but it was only a matter of time before he grew up. “ I was over there doing something else but my son said he got very, whoa, whoa, what’s going on? But he came back pretty quick.” So hopefully he’ll be a lot calmer going home. “He got very hot in there but, you see, it’s his first trip away,” Hanna said.
Stop the Rot played up on the truck on the way to Ipswich, was “stirry” in the stables before the race and “went berserk”, his strapper said, during the thunderstorm that hit after he got back to his stall. More to the point, he’s got a lot of growing up to do, the trainer added. “He’s got a lot of filling out to do,” Hanna observed. He looked like a racehorse, sucking in his stomach and putting his head up, when his mates started being led past him toward the truck headed back to Toowoomba. Stop the Rot, a three-year-old gelding by Spirit of Boom out of Wild Romance, looked anything but flighty standing in stall 62 an hour after his race on Wednesday. HE’S a hot-headed horse now but his trainer Jim Hanna is confident Stop the Rot will grow into a good horse once he learns to straighten up and fly right.
