Historic Moment can boost claims

THE in-form Historic Moment can boost his claims in the Tinys Bud 550 at Curraheen by taking the opening semi final tonight.

A winner of four of his last six starts and nine of his 25 in total, Historic Moment set the stake alight last week, producing a power-packed front running performance to go within .01 of a second of the 29.46 track record set by Make All back in March.

It’s debatable whether a switch to the inside is in Historic Moment’s favour or not but, granted normal luck in running, he should possess too much firepower for Laurels Consolation winner Broadacres McCoy.
