SEYMOUR trainer Dwayne Reid enjoyed city success Wednesday, March 4 when Commands Success won at Caulfield in the hands of regular rider Holly Durnan. The six year old has been a model of consistency for Reid, having finished in the first three at 16 of his 33 raceday starts, accruing stakesmoney of over $176,000 in the process. The horse was forced wide in a midfield position and did incredibly well to run down the leaders and take out the race.

The Hope stable enjoyed more success at Echuca on Sunday, taking out the benchmark 62 1400 metre race with Fire Tribe. The horse has been an asset to the Hope stable since he joined them a year ago, coming from the stable of Joe Pride in Sydney. The five year old Contributer gelding has had 12 starts for the Hopes, never finishing worse than 5th place and being in the first three placings seven times. Shannon Hope describes the horse as totally genuine and only needs things to go his own way to be successful.
