Gelded already ahead of his first official trial, the Les Bridge trained Sports Legend showed abundant pace from the gates for Kerrin McEvoy to cross and lead under a hold.

McEvoy sat motionless for the whole trial with Sports Legend trucking his way up the running to win by five lengths…. can’t wait to see him on the grass.

A $200,000 Magic Millions purchase for Bon Ho from the Newgate Farm draft, Sports Legend was bred by Love Racing and is the second foal from former fast stakes-winning 2YO Twist Tops, a daughter of Beneteau.

Sports Legend was a $200,000 Magic Millions purchase from the Newgate Farm draft.

Other heat winners were: Secret Revolution (Russian Revolution), Ironbark Artie (Flying Artie), Zarinya (Headwater) and Lascars (Sepoy).
