BILL THE BEE KEEPS OUR WINNING MONTH ROLLING

Some key gear changes and a perfect ride brought out the best in Bill The Bee to score at Moonee Valley on Saturday.

A tongue tie and cross over noseband were added to Bill The Bee after the four-year-old ruined his chances by over racing at his previous start and, with Jye McNeil parking himself in third place behind the leader, the plan worked to perfection with Bill The Bee out to challenge around the home turn before asserting his authority to score.

“The way the race panned out was perfect,” McNeil said. “There was nice pace and he was able to relax and get into a lovely rhythm.

“He was well placed here by Mike and I’d say the horse will take some confidence from today and go on with it now.”

Assistant trainer Jack Turnbull was full of praise for horse and rider.

“It was a perfect ride and it made all the difference for him having a horse to follow,” Turnbull said.

“He’s a horse that has tended to get a bit carried away in his races but the changes today certainly helped so it’s certainly nice to get another win with him.”

A $260,000 yearling purchase by Paul Moroney, Bill The Bee’s victory is the seventh in December from 25 runners for the stable and our fourth consecutive Saturday metropolitan winner.
