Tylden is a village in a location readily accessible from the much larger centres of Woodend, Kyneton and Trentham.
And Tylden is also the name of a well-bred racehorse who notched up her second win last week.
Owned by Hirsch Racing and trained by John Salanitri at the Hirsch Park training complex at Tylden, the four-year-old mare finished strongly to win the Moe Optical BM58 Handicap.
Jack Hill, who rode Tylden to her maiden victory at Geelong on August 3 last year, had the mount again. Hill bided his time in the 2050m Moe Optical BM58 Handicap.
Tylden started as a $12 chance, and finished full of running to defeat leader Highland Hill by 1.25 lengths.
The Moe track had a heavy 8 rating, and Tylden revelled in the conditions.
John and Frank Salanitri were very pleased with Tylden’s effort.
