Tommy Berry heads to Brisbane this weekend with a clear mission: reunite with Caballus and get a gauge on a highly rated Magic Millions-bound youngster.

Berry partnered Bjorn Baker’s Caballus to a stakes victory at Flemington two runs back before the sprinter backed up quickly and finished unplaced behind Giga Kick in the Champions Sprint.

Caballus has since been freshened, and Berry expects him to be competitive in Saturday’s George Moore Stakes (1200m), though he noted the danger posed by Hidden Wealth — a horse he knows intimately.

“The team is very happy with him at home, and I was rapt with him on Derby Day,” Berry said.

“He is the quality horse in the race, but I’m fully aware of what Hidden Wealth can do after winning the QTIS Magic Millions race on him last year. I’ve won three out of five rides on him, so I know how good he is, and he’s drawn the plum gate in one.

“We’ve got to overcome a tricky alley but he’s a class horse and hopefully class can overcome that.”

Berry will also debut Snitska, a beautifully bred $620,000 Magic Millions colt by Snitzel out of Miss Siska, who has shown professional traits in two Gold Coast trials for the Chris Waller stable.

“He looks readymade when it comes to a two-year-old,” Berry said.

“He has a lovely cruising speed, and I know the team has a good opinion of him.”

Another of Berry’s seven mounts is Sylph for Michael Freedman in the Mode Stakes (1200m). The filly earned the trip north after a strong first-up second at Canterbury, where she momentarily lost momentum before charging again late.

Berry believes she has more to offer.

“If she turns up showing us what she has shown us at home, and not so much what she has shown at the races thus far, she will be right in it,” he said.
