LONHRO
finished off his spring campaign with a fighting win in the Mackinnon, drawing
further comparisons with his dad Octagonal. The handsome black horse had the
run of the race mid field behind pacemaking mare Venus Was Her Name, and looked
set to score an easy win when he started making his run in the straight.
However, Royal Code who had been running prominently fought back with a
vengeance and Lonhro had to pull out all stops for a narrow win. Distinctly
Secret turned in an eye-catcher along the rail from last on the turn to be
third in a three-way photo finish.
Lonhro
has had a long campaign this spring, and as a December foal his performances at
weight-for-age have been praiseworthy. He put in a lack lustre effort after
bungling the start in the Cox Plate-G1, and had no chance when snookered in the
George Main-G1, but his other starts yielded three weight-for-age wins including
a victory over Sunline in the Caulfield Stakes-G1 and over Platinum Scissors in
the Chelmsford Stakes-G2, and a head defeat by Defier in the Warwick Stakes-G2.
Lonhro
will return after a spell to be prepared for the Australian Cup-G1, and is sure
to be one of the stars of the autumn carnivals.
