Aaron Bullock is primed for another big day back on the country circuit after a weekend double at Randwick.<\/span>Credit: <\/span>Getty<\/cite><\/p>\n The gelding, cutely named being out of a mare by Cross Court, has only missed a place once in five starts, launched with a dominant maiden win on debut at Tamworth back in late February.<\/p>\n Unluckily beaten by a whisker in two subsequent runs, Rematch was spelled through late autumn and all of winter, only resuming a month ago when he failed to let down as an easing favourite in a class 2 at Scone.<\/p>\n But he bounced back 18 days later over 1300m at the provincials, ridden from the back before cutting loose with a barnstorming finish. Now he tackles a more than handy country grade, but given he is bred to easily run out a strong mile and beyond, the 1500m looks right up his alley, especially with red-hot jockey Aaron Bullock back in the saddle.<\/p>\n Almost like clockwork, today\u2019s Muswellbrook card threatens to be another lucrative haul for the Raging Bull after piloting a race-to-race double on Whodat and Peace Officer at Randwick on Saturday.<\/p>\n In the race after, he jumps aboard improving Wyong four-year-old Oakfield Eagle who looks a serious chance third-up in a maiden over 1500m.<\/p>\n Bullock also rides one of the main chances, Sightseer, for Gosford trainer Greg McFarlane in a class 1 handicap over 1000m before rounding out the day aboard Warwick Farm six-year-old Appetite For Risk in an open BM58.<\/p>\n Supplied by Racing NSW Sports news, results and expert commentary. <\/i><\/b>Sign up for our Sport newsletter<\/i><\/b>.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
