Tara Madgwick - Thursday February 22

The $2million Group I MRC Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m) this Saturday has attracted a full field with emergencies and on a sale mail front it’s an interesting one with three individual million dollar yearling purchases last year making the field and all three could figure in the mix.
