Donna Logan cannot wait to send out her small team of the old and the new on Saturday. The old hands are spearheaded by stable stalwart King Arthur making a third bid at a first silverware in the $110,000 Group 3 Kranji Sprint (1,200m). The next generation is made...
After a slow start, King Arthur had his job cut out when landing in a more rearward spot than usual.Logan said it was best to forget he ran that day, when he was ridden for the first time by top visiting Melbourne jockey Mark Zahra.“He hasn’t had a low weight for a while. He’s also drawn low .Logan is reinstating the rider who guided King Arthur to the last four of his nine wins, her former apprentice jockey Yusoff Fadzli.
They are both safe pairs of hands but Logan remains wary of the unpredictable nature of “babies” tasting action for the first time.“There are so many unknowns with young horses lacking in experience. We have to be very careful during the race,” she said.“It’s not necessarily the best horse who wins, but it’s the horse who copes mentally the best, who gets the best run.
Regardless of their performances, Logan will likely benchmark them against the more precocious two-year-old she bought at the same time – Rhett Butler.
