Trainer Tony Gollan began the racing season with a dominant performance in Brisbane, securing eleven winners within the first two weeks. This success included victories by the gelding Precise Star at the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast.

As the season progressed into the spring fixtures, Gollan shifted focus toward major upcoming races. He is targeting the Furious Stakes with the three-year-old filly Pembrey, who follows a victory in the Silver Shadow Stakes. Pembrey is expected to be ridden by Tommy Berry.
