Brett Crawford is hoping to see PI Legend transfer his winning form from the all-weather track to the turf when he looks to go back-to-back in Sunday’s Class Three Joy And Fun Handicap (1,200m).
The son of I Am Invincible won at his only start for Crawford since being transferred from Dennis Yip Chor-hong when showing plenty of determination to run down the smart Turquoise Velocity by a neck over the trip on the dirt.
Sunday will see the four-year-old son maintain the services of Karis Teetan after almost a month between runs, with Crawford expecting to utilise the same tactics from barrier six.
“I thought it was a good win, the only question mark is how he’ll go back on the turf. His work is good, he looks really well and I think with the way he won – I see no reason why he can’t run well on the turf,” Crawford said.
“From gate six I think we can get him in a good position and give him a couple of horses to run at, so I think we’ll definitely keep the same tactics for sure.”
