Alesprit Joins Laming Stable
Thursday, 30 July 2009:
Brilliant North Queensland filly Alesprit has recovered from a leg injury and has joined the Bevan Laming stable for a metropolitan campaign. Alesprit was transferred last week from Rockhampton trainer Tom Bourke after her owners decided she deserved a chance to run for bigger prizemoney.
She is the second exciting prospect to leave the Bourke stable this season after he lost another of his stars Abirra - a subsequent Brisbane winner - for the same reason.
Alesprit's first start for Bourke in Rockhampton in February resulted in a 11 lengfths win in 2YO event over 1000m in less than 57 seconds.
She then didn't race until April when she was beaten only a long neck in the Capricorn Classic, a great effort as she was later found to have suffered a fetlock injury that required an operation to remove bone fragments.
She was sent to Laming after pre-training after plans to send her to Melbourne trainer Mick Price for the spring carnival were shelved.
