Guy after double with Noisy Ocean, Regular

Friday 25 July 2014, 12:52pm

Trainer Bryan Guy is hoping his run at midweek meetings will convert into a Saturday double with warhorses Noisy Ocean and Regular at Doomben.

Guy won the Ballina Bracelet with Castanita on Tuesday and followed up with a Doomben winner in Buon Auspicio on Wednesday.

He has had a profitable season with 49 winners and is eighth on the Brisbane trainers' premiership on 17 wins.

However, Guy's son and manager Dan Guy said the stable had a recent drought of Saturday city winners with a run of minor placings during the winter.

"It has been a frustrating period as we have had nothing but seconds and thirds in the city. And most of those have been very close," he said.

Noisy Ocean, who will tackle the Beach House Bar & Grill Handicap (2120m), has been typical of the stable runners with minor placings in the Ipswich Cup and Grafton Cup.

"He ran two terrific races in the Cups. He won at the Gold Coast between those two runs but didn't have much luck in the big ones.

"Noisy Ocean is no star but he is honest and deserves another win," Guy said.

He said stable apprentice Janette Johnson would ride Noisy Ocean and claim 3kg.

"The weights were raised 1.5 kilos here but with Janette's claim he gets in on the minimum and is well off against a few others," he said.

Johnson, who rode a double at Doomben on Wednesday, will also ride Regular in the Bottle-O Handicap (1600m).

"Regular is back out to the mile so we will put ear muffs on him. He likes Doomben and he should be suited the way the race will be run," Guy said.

Johnson has a great association with Regular having won four times on the gelding and been minor placed a further six times.

Noisy Ocean will go for a spell after Saturday and will return for the Magic Millions Stayers' Cup, a race he won in 2013.

However, Regular is likely to race on.

The Guy stable is looking forward to the new season with 25 two-year-olds joining the team.

"We have had a good two-year-old season this year and we are looking forward to the new crop," Guy said.

"Like a few other stables we have seen our older horses go and it takes a while to bring the younger horses through."
