Written By And Nature Strip Set To Clash

Racing Online - Horse Racing News - Written By And Nature Strip Set To Clash

Group One-winning colt and boom sprinter are among the expected entries for the Listed at .

Both the Grahame Begg-trained Written By and -trained Nature Strip are scheduled to resume in Saturday's 1000m-race on their way to Group One sprints later in the autumn.

Written By will be out to remain unbeaten at Caulfield, having been successful in all four starts at the track including the Group One (1200m) in February last year.

The colt won twice at the track during his three-start spring campaign including the Group Three and he signalled he was on target for his return with a pleasing jump-out at Caulfield last Tuesday.

Written By and stakes-winning sprinter Bons Away, who is also scheduled to resume in the Adams Stakes, cleared out from the rest of the field in the jump-out.

It was the first time this preparation had been aboard Written By and he was suitably impressed with the colt he has ridden in all eight of his starts for six wins.

“I thought he was super,” Childs said.

“It was the first time I had seen him since he has been back this time in and he looked a treat.

“I was very happy with his jump-out. He absolutely flew out of the gates, led them up and felt really good in his action.

“He's only had the one jump-out but he only has to go 1000 metres first-up.

“He'll probably take improvement from the run but on his trial he feels to me like he's going as good as he can be going.”

Begg is aiming Written By at the Group One (1100m), three weeks after the W J Adams.
