STRIDE OUT knocked off his maiden win when easily accounting for moderate oppostion at Cranbourne on November 27th.
Having just his eighth start and coming off the back of some handy runs against much better horses, he was very confidently backed from $3.50 into $2.00 by punters and despite being softened up in the run by a couple who challenged him for the lead throughout the race, Stride Out never looked like letting them down.
Ending up the easiest of winners by over 2 lengths, he gave his owners a good cause for celebration and landed some big bets in the process.
