Trainer Leon Wells is predicting a bright future for his lightly raced filly Shim who put up an impressive performance to win her second race from five starts in Hobart on Sunday.

Apprentice Peter Lui was due to return to Hong Kong late las year as his tenure with Team Wells had expired but due to that country’s borders being closed due to the pandemic, he has remained in the state.

Last season’s Newmarket Handicap winner Gee Gee Secondover is set to kick off his next campaign in Melbourne after an impressive trial win in Devonport on Tuesday.

The father/son training partnership of Leon, Dean & Trent Wells are ever present at most Tasmanian thoroughbred race meetings and their family presence will grow on Sunday when Dean’s daughter Chloe Wells makes her racetrack debut as a jockey in Devonport.
