Craig Grylls aims for premiership with Leica Lucy
Jockey Craig Grylls is aiming for success this weekend as he partners with the favorite, Leica Lucy, in the $1 million New Zealand Oaks at Trentham. This race is significant for Grylls, as he is close to reaching his goal of winning the jockey premiership. Leica Lucy is set to have her last race with Grylls, as a majority ownership of the horse has been sold to an Australian group. This change means Leica Lucy will move from trainer Robbie Patterson to Chris Waller in Sydney after today's race. Grylls expressed mixed feelings about the situation. He is excited for Leica Lucy's new owners but sad to see a talented horse leave his stable. He said, “It will be a shame to see her go but we all understand how that works, and I am thrilled for her owners, who are really good people.”
