Home Affairs Shooting for 20

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday Jul 22

Wednesday racing at Caulfield will give Home Affairs the opportunity to put up his 20th first crop winner and if successful, the Coolmore young gun will get very close to Snitzel in the race to be crowned Champion 2YO Sire.

Snitzel does not have a 2YO runner today, while Home Affairs will pin his hopes on the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott trained filly Lady Moscato, who has not raced since finishing midfield in the Group I MRC Blue Diamond Stakes behind Streisand, Closer to Free and Guest House… that’s strong form for a midweek juvenile fillies contest over 1000m.

Lady Moscato was a $1,050,000 Magic Millions purchase from Coolmore.

Lady Moscato has been trialling well in Sydney ahead of her return and has gate four with Jett Stanley to ride although will be given a good test with a number of promising fillies engaged that have race fitness on the side.

Stay tuned!
