It was a deserved win for Saint Esprit at Wagga on Friday (16 January), having only his second start and first run in seven months.
Tried publicly for the first time in an Echuca trial last May, Saint Esprit won that test and then won another trial at Wodonga a fortnight later.
Unfortunately, he finished midfield on debut at Swan Hill in June and was subsequently tipped out for a lengthy spell. But Berrigan trainer and part-owner, Paul McVicar, must have been reasonably confident when heading to Wagga after Saint Esprit had demolished his trial rivals by 5 lengths at Albury on 10 January.
A 3YO son of Bel Esprit, Saint Esprit is out of the Don’t Say Halo city winner Hunter Halo and is from the family of former top stayer Native Jazz.
