It seems surprising but Hay List, according to overnight reports, is 100% right for Friday night's William Reid at Moonee Valley. That really does come as a bit of a shock considering the horse is recovering from a burst abscess on a heel. The Age reports that 'the injury cloud ...has been lifted' following an inspection by Racing Victoria stewards on Thursday. They gave the 6YO sprint star the all-clear to start. Chief Steward Terry Bailey says Hay List was about 90% right on Thursday afternoon
It seems surprising but Hay List, according to overnight reports, is 100% right for Friday night's William Reid at Moonee Valley. That really does come as a bit of a shock considering the horse is recovering from a burst abscess on a heel. The Age reports that 'the injury cloud ...has been lifted' following an inspection by Racing Victoria stewards on Thursday. They gave the 6YO sprint star the all-clear to start. Chief Steward Terry Bailey says Hay List was about 90% right on Thursday afternoon. He adds: 'These problems take up very, very quickly, so we have no problems with him starting at this stage...However, as a precaution, we will re-examine Hay List the moment he comes on course.' Punters, of course, will be hoping they'll be putting their money on an absolutely 100% fit Hay List. Will they get a guarantee?
