Victorian visitor Magnaspin found reasons to win when those around him could only find excuses not to in The Coast at Newcastle on Saturday.
The Mick Price and Michael Kent stable had come to Newcastle confiden in the classy mudlark, but it took the whole straight for him to run down Sir Lucan. “With these kinds of horses momentum is key, and it was a good effort by him because I had to break his momentum at the 600 because the horses in front of me stopped that quickly,” jockey Chad Schofield said.Barrier golden for Semillion in Takeover Target
“He would probably have stayed in Melbourne if he drew a gate there,” Hawkes said. “It was an easy decision to come up with that gate, but when the race was moved from Gosford I was a bit worried because it is a much longer straight here. The Kermadec filly, which was $2.30 favourite, did just that as she scored by 2¼ lengths from Nana’s Wish and Piggybank and raced herself into the Queensland Oaks.
“Since he has been gelded he has been a bit of a different horse and getting better with every run,” Cummings said. “We won’t aim too high with him. He is Victoria-bred, so there is VOBIS money for him, and the Taj Rossi series might be a good aim for him.”Navy Blood heading for Best in Brisbane
