SYDNEY - Hugh Bowman has a busy weekend ahead with the leading New South Wales jockey to ride in Sydney tonight and tomorrow before making his third transtasman trip this month for Sunday's Karaka Million meeting.
Bowman will partner the John Sargent-trained Savabill in the Karaka Million (1200m) at Ellerslie and he will also be aboard the Mark Wallace-trained Miss Confidential in the Karaka 3YO Mile (1600m).
He partnered Savabill to third in the group three Eclipse Stakes (1200m) on January 1, with the race won by Anabandana ahead of Savabill's stablemate Super Easy.
Super Easy, who beat Savabill home by 2 lengths, is again among his rivals on Sunday.
"It was a good run from him [Savabill] last start, he'll have to improve a couple of lengths but I think he has that improvement in him," Bowman said.
Miss Confidential has won three of her four starts in country NSW, including a last-start win in a Kembla Class Two on January 15. Ben Melham will ride the Lee Freedman-trained Chateauneuf Dupape in the Karaka Million.
