Janelle Galea Racing

The Show Keeps Rolling 🏆

What a day at Narromine Cup Day with the stable producing another double— made even more special doing it in front of family, friends and our valued owners.

We kicked off the day with Honey Slider who took out the first division of the $15,000 Country Boosted Benchmark 58 over 1300m.

Given a terrific ride by Liam Blanch, Honey Slider was switched off beautifully early before Liam produced him at the right time, powering down the straight to record his third win this preparation**.

A huge thank you once again to Troy Kilgower for entrusting us with this horse. We’re extremely grateful for the opportunity and delighted to see Honey Slider continuing to progress.

Then came Palentino Sw***er, who bounced back to winning form in impressive fashion.

With the blinkers added, the mare was expected to settle much closer, however a bump shortly after the start saw her settle further back than intended. Heavelon Van Der Hoven remained patient, allowing her to find her rhythm before producing a strong finish to storm over the top and secure the win.

The victory takes Palentino Sw***er’s record to 11 starts for 3 wins and 4 placings, with $74,925 in prizemoney.

It was particularly special to have so many family and close friends involved in this mare, including Janelle’s mother Helen. Sons Brandon (with partner Dom) Zarrin and Sebastian, Brenden Wilson and good friend Chris Mann.

A massive thank you to everyone who continues to support our stable — owners, jockeys, staff, family, friends and everyone working behind the scenes.

Two runners. Two winners. A Narromine Cup Day to remember. 🏆🏆

**WHAT A WAY TO START THE NEW SEASON. 🏆**

**Two runners, two winners.** A fantastic start to the new season for the stable.

We kicked off the day with **Frankie’s Shout**, who once again showed his toughness, producing an excellent effort to win over 1120m on a heavy track. His breeding certainly helped him handle the conditions, but carrying **60kg** made the performance all the more impressive.

A special mention to **Jacob Stiff**, who produced a 10/10 ride. Jacob has put in countless hours of work behind the scenes for us over the past couple of years, and it was fantastic to see that hard work rewarded with a winner.

**Street Swagger** then returned to the winner’s circle with a strong performance over 1400m. It’s great to have him back in the stable, and he looks to have returned in excellent order.

A big thank you to **Liam Blanch**, who continues to put in plenty of work for us and gave Street Swagger a terrific ride.

We’d also like to sincerely thank **Troy Kilgower and his team** for continuing to place their trust in us to train their horses. We’re extremely grateful for the opportunity.

A special thank you to **Steve and Kate Edwards** for their help and support at the races today. It’s greatly appreciated and certainly doesn’t go unnoticed.

We now turn our attention to **Gunnedah on Friday**, where **Honey Slider** and **Palentino Sw***er** will represent the stable.

A terrific start to the season — hopefully plenty more to come. 🏇
