Chloe Azzopardi - Thirteen Big Ones.
West Australian Racing
Not too often see a 3kg claiming apprentice gather 13 points in the Jockey Challenge - 3,3,3,2,2. A winning treble and two seconds to Chloe Azzopardi.
Jarrad Noske another runner up in the JC at a decent price.
Azzopardi $2.60 - Quinella with Noske 20/1.
Chris Parnham rode a winner but unplaced favourite at $2.50.
An apprentice in terrific form and claiming three kilos - there's not much better for trainers, owners and punters.
No comparison of course, but the great day for Azzopardi harks one back in time to a young hoop in Melbourne who at times was nearly unbeatable and best apprentice have seen in my lifetime - he was poetry in motion - Darren Gauci.

The "Gauch" just caught the imagination at the time, also went on to be a good hoop and was fitting he rode a winner in town on his last day of riding.
With Chloe Azzopardi - doesn't seem that long ago when would be on course and see a almost shy and unassuming, but steely eyed and determined girl hoop in Linda Martin, who would sometimes be the only female riding on the day!
Martin held her own against all odds as that was one hell of a tough environment for a female hoop. No favours asked - none given. A pioneer, she would've ridden against guys like Rod Kemp, Mark Sestich, Peter Barnett, Jeff Noske etc.
May not have ridden a heap of winners, but just like the Melbourne Cup winning female hoop - could get them into the placings and winner's circle at big odds.
