WARMING UP FOR THE LITTLE DANCE
By Graham Potter | Monday, November 6, 2023
The Corey and Kylie Geran stable have been very busy … and tomorrow at Randwick they will step up to feature race action at Randwick for the first time when the six-year-old import Without Revenge, who will be having the first start for the Geran yard, steps out in the $750 000 Little Dance over 1600m.
Busy in that in the last couple of weeks the Geran Team have qualified two runners, Jack Be Luck and Vinasta for the $200 000 Country Cups final and the $105 000 Country Stampede Final respectively.
Both of those races will take place on December 2 at Doomben, evidence that the stable continues to target the best options available for their team.
But, for now, that big day out at Doomben will be pushed aside for the moment as an even bigger adventure beckons.
The surrounds of Royal Randwick will be the focus of attention when Corey and Kylie Geran saddle up a newcomer to their stable in the form of the former David Vandyke trained Without Revenge, who was purchased by KO Racing’s Kobie O’Brien after the son of Muhaarar had finished second in the Lismore Cup, a result which galned him entry into the Little Dance.
Fair to say, having a runner in a supporting feature race at Randwick is a step up for the Geran team, not least because they will go into battle against national, high-profile stables such as the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott training partnership, Bjorn Baker and John O’Shea … to name a few … but it is an adventure they have embraced with enthusiasm and without fear.
They are there to give it their best shot and those who have followed the stables rise in size and fortunes over the last two years will know that is exactly what they are going to do!
