MOSSMANS LOVING IT
28 December 2009 |
SYDNEY - MOSSMAN colt Love Conquers All is one of four pre-post favourites for next month's $1m Magic Millions 3YO trophy.
The Team Hawkes-trained galloper was promoted to equal top pick after a sterling win at Randwick on Boxing Day against a high class field.
Love Conquers All was having his first start since a luckless performance in the G1 Coolmore Stud Stakes at Flemington in November.
Love Conquers All is the most expensive Mossman yearling sold at auction, reaching $400,000 at the 2008 Gold Coast Sale.
"It is onwards and upwards from here,'' co-trainer Michael Hawkes said. ``The plan all along has been the Magic Millions and he is on track."
``He performed strongly here before he went down to Melbourne where he was only beaten a little over two lengths in the Coolmore Stud Stakes (Gr.1) after getting lost down the straight.''
