Nice win by Mark Riley's precocious filly I'm Too Sexy in the historic Magic Millions Clockwise Classic at Ballarat on Sunday. Riley was full of praise for jockey Luke Currie. He says: 'I told Luke the first 50 yards were crucial, that we really had to make her begin and be there, because when we walked the track we were worried about the hard run around the turn...We know we have a very good filly.' Riley is keen to chase the MM at the Gold Coast in January. 'We have pencilled in what we want to do but we haven't made full plans - the good thing is that stage one is over; we have achieved what we wanted to do.' One to follow from the Ballarat race is Gracious Prospect who ripped home into 3rd place.
