The connections of Natuzzi are happy to let the veteran sprinter have the final say on the direction of his current campaign.
The 8-year-old showed he was still more than a match for his younger short-course rivals when he powered home to win the group three Concorde Handicap at Ellerslie yesterday.
"He's got a nomination for the Railway, but we'll get him home and see how he pulls up " he'll tell us what to do," said Peter Williams, who prepares the son of Coats Choice with his wife, Dawn, and Paul Richards.
The Byerley Park trainers enjoyed a dream day at Ellerslie, where they won earlier races with Marciano, Night's Watch and Symphonic to follow the success of their stablemate Gravano in the closing event on the course seven days earlier. "The team's flying at the moment and we've got great staff," Williams said.
Natuzzi, who had finished fourth when resuming at his previous start, customarily settled off the pace and he dived between runners close to home for rider Vinnie Colgan.
