Geary in demand

15 March 2021

Group 1 winning driver Chris Geary has built up some drives at Bankstown tonight.

Geary moved interstate to Queensland and returned back to his home state late last year.

Having had some drives sparingly in New South Wales since relocating, the young reinsman will drive in four of the six races tonight.

He also has booked drives at Menangle tomorrow as well as Bathurst on Wednesday night.

It was at Bathurst in 2017 where Geary drove his first Group 1 winner when taking out the Gold Tiara Final with My Sweetchilliphilly for trainers Shane and Lauren Tritton.

Geary will be trying to emulate that result when driving Manhattan Lass in a Gold Tiara Heat on Wednesday night, a pacer trained by Geary’s sister Belinda.

 

Bankstown best bet

Race 3: Ball Of Art (4)

Despite a last start shocker can redeem himself here trialling in impressive style at Menangle since.
