“She is in very good order and there is a little bit of rain about which may just help us out. She’s travelled to Melbourne a number of times and won over there twice so its nice to allow her to enjoy her surrounds util race time and make many of the others travel to us. It look a great Sangster field ! “
“She’s drawn a good gate and its a pleasure to see the excitement amongst the owners. She’ll do us all proud”
