Winning has become a habit for trainer Michael Travers, as he looks to extend his run of success at Corowa on Monday.

The former jockey has prepared two winning trebles at his home track of Wagga in the past month.

He also landed his first training trifecta at Wagga on September 29 and he is set to eclipse last seasons tally.

The trainer (pictured) has starters in all but one of the 7 races and could easily land another winner or two.

He will be represented by stable newcomer Solar Speed in the Beers and Birdies – Maiden Plate (1000m).

The former Victorian trained galloper has been unplaced in three starts and will have the services of Pierre Boudvillain, who leads the Country Jockeys Premiership. Travers has elected to make a few gear changes to Solar Speed, which could pay dividends.

He will also have Taluk, who was part of his first winning treble, racing on Monday with John Kissick aboard. Taluk is raced by one of Traver’s main clients, Robyn Tatham.

Taluk comes up against Kilmore visitor, You’re Two Vain, who has won his only two starts. The gelding will be having his first since winning at Kilmore by 3 lengths in May as a $1.65 favourite.

He also won his debut by 5 lengths with regular jockey, Cory Parish again on board.

Master of Disguise isn’t a confirmed starter, but looms as one of the main dangers if he runs along with stablemate, Hellinda.

Their trainer, Danielle Seib, has an imposing strike rate at Corowa where she rarely misses preparing a winner.

Seib should win the opening race with Neeson, who is the shortest priced favourite on the program in the Corowa Chaff Mill Maiden Plate (1300m).

The gelding has raced twice, finishing second on both occasions and has drawn perfectly in barrier 1.
