Khamsin Warrior commenced his new country-based career for new owners and trainer Lewis Seib with a creditable 7th, coming from near last at the turn, at Scone yesterday.
Ridden by Teresa Nikora KW settled at the back of the field and was disappointed for a run upon entering the straight. His inside barrier meant he had a horse on his outside at the turn which meant he was forced to look for a run inside which didn't come.
The winner looks a very good horse over a sprint journey and won in fast time.
KW will be fitter for the run and will be looking for 1400-1600m after a few more runs.
