O’Shea believes that is a fair assessment of his chances. The classy gelding is unsurprisingly the clear top elect in TAB betting for The Hunter and has remained a $2.80 favourite since markets opened.

The biggest win of Lost And Running’s career to date came over the 1300m trip in the Listed Luskin Star Stakes at Rosehill earlier this year. You see those top sprinters like Nature Strip and Eduardo, they are pretty fair horses and he has been knocking around with them at level weights.” “He will get a bunch of weight but he deserves it. “He is obviously going to have to carry some weight but I think he is in good form and he’s coming out of the right race. “We are just hoping everything continues in the same way this week and he gets there in the form we think he is in. It’s no different going into this race,” O’Shea said. “I am happy with how he is going and he seems to be continually on an upwards spiral. The son of Per Incanto showed he’s up to the top level by finishing fourth in The Everest two starts ago before finishing a little over a length off Eduardo when runner-up in the Classique Legend Stakes. Lost And Running has already hit a new career peak this spring despite failing to enter the winner’s stall in four spring runs. O’Shea has enjoyed eight winners from his past 17 runners this spring with three of those coming in Stakes races while also conditioning four runners up in the same time frame.Īrguably the most exciting horse in his stable right now can add to that record when he lines up in Newcastle’s rich 1300m event next weekend. John O’Shea has his stable firing on all cylinders and he’s confident star sprinter Lost And Running can continue the hot run of form in Saturday’s $1m The Hunter at Newcastle.
