Rising star apprentice jockey Luke Cartwright marked an early career highlight with a Saturday city running treble – all for trainers Peter Moody and Katherine Coleman.

Cartwright showcased his riding talents in the whirlwind 90-minute window at Sandown Hillside.

He opened the account with a patient ride on Suances, wove a path home from back in the field, and then guided the wayward Saban to victory in the 1800m Benchmark 100.

The 18-year-old rolled forward on Roadcone from a wide draw in the 1600m Benchmark 84 and built an unassailable lead.

“I am a bit speechless … I had a nice even book and if they turned up I thought they could run a really nice race,” Cartwright said.

“For all horses to turn up and have myself give them a good ride, it means a lot.”

Coleman was thrilled to share the treble with Cartwright.

“Luke has been doing work for us behind the scenes … (great) to see him rewarded,” Coleman said.

"@LukeCartwrightt could win on a pogo stick at the moment!"

“It was a lovely ride there, he looked at me a little bit funny when I said if he begins as well as he did at Pakenham you might find yourself in front, I’m not sure what he thought of that pre-race.

“When the horse jumped as well as he did there was no questions how it was going to pan out from there … with that light weight on his back they weren’t going to catch him.”

Cartwright has ridden 68 winners including seven in town.

The Moody-Coleman yard has supplied his past five city winners.
