No Dry July for Foxwedge

Relocated to Woodside Park Stud in Victoria, Foxwedge has been making every post a winner this month siring his eighth winner for July when the Tony McEvoy trained two year-old Marndarra scored a dominant win at Morphettville on Wednesday as a hot favourite.

Second on debut last month, she relished the step out to 1550 metres and overcame an outside gate to surge forward and race clear at the finish to win by a length and a quarter.

A $250,000 Magic Millions purchase from the Highgrove Stud draft for McEvoy Mitchell Racing, Marndarra is the first winner from Group II placed Snitzel mare Tornado Miss, who was a winner up to 1650 metres.

Foxwedge winners this month include Coolceleb, who won at Sha Tin on Sunday, Aristocratic Miss, who won at Sandown last Wednesday and promising two year-old Jahbath, who won at Bendigo last week for Shadwell Australia. He was also around the money in the Listed Ramornie Handicap today with Freddie Fox Trot a close third to Havasay. 

Foxwedge stands at Woodside Park Stud at the value fee of $16,500.
