Heywood warming his mount up at Wagga before a race.
Former Harden Jockey Nick Heywood will be lining up in race 9 at Randwick today in the Sensis Dash Handicap, over 1200 metres, at 515pm.
Prizemoney of $85,000 is on the line for the 16 thoroughbreds in the race.
The apprentice hoop is on Burradoo who has run in to some hot form of late. Heywood won his first metropolitan race on him at Warwick Farm on August 24, before getting the 5 year old gelding home again in first place on September 7 at Canterbury. With 3 wins and a place form his last 5 starts, Burradoo and Heywood will be in the mix today priced at $11.
Heywood’s star continues to be on the rise with nationally recognised names such as Bowman, O’Hara, McDonald, McEvoy, Shinn, Angland, Avdulla, Berry and Williams lining up against the twin town product this afternoon. Good Luck Nick!
