Eight All for Your Song and All Too Hard

Tara Madgwick - Monday Sep 11
Widden Stud's Your Song and Vinery Stud's All Too Hard have been trading blows since August 1 and after posting a smart winner at Wodonga on Monday, Your Song has drawn level with his arch rival, the pair now on eight winners apiece.

Prepared by Brent Stanley, three year-old gelding Mission Vision broke the ice with a long neck win over 1590 metres as favourite.

Your SongHe overcame a wide gate to finish off well at his first attempt at a slightly longer journey.

A $45,000 Inglis Premier purchase from the Glentree Thoroughbreds draft, Mission Vision is the first winner for Express Street, a half-sister by Street Sense (USA) to triple Group I winner Sea Siren, who is by Your Song's sire Fastnet Rock.
