Fradd a fan of smart winner Don’t Waiver

Eagle Farm winner Don’t Waiver is a promising horse in the making, according to jockey Robbie Fradd.

Jockey Robbie Fradd has been quick to confirm Don’t Waiver’s win at Eagle Farm as even better than it looked.

Don’t Waiver ($5.50) got up on the inside and looked certain to score a comfortable win in the Worldwide Printing Handicap (1600m).

However, in the final 100m he had a battle on his hands before holding off Dawson Delight ($6) by a long head.

Fradd said Don’t Waiver had been travelling strongly when he spotted the winning post.

“He wanted to shy away from it and I think he should have won by more. He is a nice horse in the making,” Fradd said.

Trainer Stuart Kendrick said Don’t Waiver had always shown ability and he believed with maturity he would be a top horse.

“He won first up at 1000m which didn’t suit him but when he got beaten at his next start at the Sunshine Coast I was a bit surprised,” he said.

Kendrick also saddled the favourite Star of Michelin ($1.85) who struggled into fourth place after looming up at the top of the straight.

“He raced flat today and it looks like it is time for a spell,” Kendrick said.
