Let alone time to build his new stables.

At the moment, the Queanbeyan trainer is focussed on Noble Boy's bid to win the $1.3 million Kosciuszko (1200 metres) at Randwick on Saturday.

It's been a campaign that started in May and had the added pressure of being one of the favourites since then.

Noble Boy's the $4.80-second-favourite behind Jenny Graham's Victorem ($2.60) and is one of four runners from Canberra and Queanbeyan in the feature race for country trainers.

Handle The Truth ($8), Notation ($8.50) and Up Trumpz ($51) are the other runners looking to climb Kosciuszko.

Blowes has been training for about two years and, while he's got existing stables at Queanbeyan, he's bought a block to build new ones on.

Unfortunately, or fortunately perhaps, it's been a whirlwind 12 months with Noble Boy bursting onto the scene and winning the NSW Country Championships at Randwick in April.

Now he's a genuine chance of winning The Kosciuszko.

Not to mention the fact he's set up a new business marking roads and it's made for a hectic time.

"I haven't had a chance [to build my stables] it's been that busy," Blowes said.

"I've got another business too that keeps me going with a mate of mine.

"To be honest this last 12 months has been out of control.

"We'll get around to it. We've got the block of land and everything so we'll get there."

It's also come with the pressure of having a star racehorse in his stable.

But that's a pressure he's now used to.

Noble Boy was the favourite for the country championships, even after he lost his heat and had to go through the wildcard race to make the final.

It's simply that pressure all over again.

"We went through similar feeling heading into the country championships," Blowes said.

"Although we did have two races to get through before the final so it's a little bit different in that way.

"But at the same time the pressure's still there the same him being one of the leading chances in the race.

"We've been aiming for this since we finished his last prep in May in Queensland and all focus has been on this race since then.

"It's been a long mentally draining period, but that's just part of racing."

But it's not just Blowes who's handling the pressure. Noble Boy is too.

The five-year-old gelding is primed after a couple of trials.

He's also had a let-up since he finished sixth to Kosciuszko favourite Victorem ($2.60) at Eagle Farm in the listed Hinkler Handicap (1200m) in June.

While he thought Victorem was the horse to beat, Blowes was confident he could turn around that 2.5 length loss on Saturday.

He also felt Matthew Dale's Notation was a threat because she came in well at the weights - a view shared by Dale and Keith Dryden.

The son of Bon Hoffa has won seven of his nine starts - including five of six victories over this distance.

Plus jockey Hugh Bowman's back on board and he's won all three of his rides on Noble Boy.

Blowes was unsure where he would take him next, with the result on Saturday determining what races he could get into during the spring carnival.

A win would open up listed and group 3 races in Melbourne and Sydney. A loss could mean options were limited.

"His work's been outstanding since his last trial. He's fit and happy and healthy and ready to go," Blowes said.

"He's busting. He's really ready to race."
