The Doyle stable, as well as jockey Ashley Morgan, will be eyeing off a race-to-race double when promising three-year-old Heroic Deed tries to make it two from two in a Class 1 handicap over 1250m.
A son of Golden Slipper winner Farnan, Heroic Deed impressed on debut running over the top of a handy field at this track, including heavily backed Mega Pixel who went off a raging $1.45 favourite.
Heroic Deed clocked his last 600m in a slick 33.47 secs, considerably quicker than two other 1150m races that day.
He opened around $3.70 in early betting behind the Kris Lees-trained Herman Said, who is fourth-up and at $3.30.
Another winning sequence goes on the line in the final race – BM 64 Hcp (1350m) for the fillies and mares – when exciting Randwick three-year-old Siebert attempts to make it three straight wins this campaign for the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott stable.
