One to Watch – Mornington

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday December 28

The powerful Maher and Eustace stable had a short priced favourite in the 1500m Benchmark 64 event at Mornington on Wednesday and she kept her record at a perfect two for two brining a nice pedigree update for her Karaka Book 1 bound full sister.

Three year-old Time Test (GB) filly Running on Time won her debut at Swan Hill last month over 1200m and had enjoyed the step up in trip to score her second win.

She was strong to the line beating older rivals to win by a length.
