Going into last night's Sportsbet Future Stars Heat 7 with the consistent form line of 2nd 5th 2nd 2nd BEL AIR was always going to be one of the horses that attracted most interest.
Jumping from Barrier 3 and carrying saddlecloth 1 BEL AIR jumped away smartly from the gates and was given a masterful ride from Bel Melham throughout. Sitting one out one back and traveling kindly Melham angled BEL AIR to the middle of the track and he balanced up and accelerated smoothly.
Galloping impressively to the line BEL AIR won by a comfortable 1 ¼ lengths in a race that is expected to provide a good form guide for the autumn. Melham noted that the trip to Queensland for the Magic Millions Guineas had been a valuable experience for the gelded son of WRITTEN TYCOON. Options are open for BEL AIR with races like the C S Hayes Stakes and the Final of the Sportsbet Future Stars coming into consideration.
Noorilim Park who share in the ownership of BEL AIR will offer a full sister at the upcoming Inglis Premier Sale in March.
