One Son is the only progeny of his ill fated sire Best As Zariz, something rarely seen, and he will go around in Tuesday’s Bathurst RSL Club Benchmark 60 Handicap (1208m).
“He is going better than he ever has. I have changed his work a lot and given him a good (trial) gallop last week then kept him fresh,” Potter said.
“He will improve fitness wise off this run but I expect him to run a big race.”
One Son was never meant to be as his sire inadvertently mated with a mare when he was a younger horse. Best As Zariz was gelded shortly afterwards and went on to win six of his 15 starts before breaking down in the 2012 Gundagai Snake Gully Cup.
On Tuesday he will take on Dubbo horses Majaska, from Garry Lunn’s stable, and Connie Greig’s pair Anytime Baby and Emo Girl.
