Etna Bianco enjoyed the perfect start to his career with a winning debut at Tattersalls last month. Racing in the second half of the field for much of the contest, it was notable just how easily he was able to make ground to get himself into a challenging position coming to the third-last fence, and by the next obstacle, he was in the lead. Despite stumbling on the notoriously sharp and tricky home bend, he quickly regained his momentum to repel all challengers. The race had a competitive look to it, and he has to be given extra credit for defeating more experienced rivals to win in the quickest time on the card.
