One to Watch – Tamworth

Tara Madgwick - Monday March 22

Darley young gun Astern posted his second winner at Tamworth on Monday and he did it with a stylish debut winner of the $30,000 Starmaker Plate (1000m).

Trained by Kris Lees, Do As You’re Told was well backed and produced a terrific first up performance to score a length and a quarter win.
