TN took over the training of the classy sprinter from Luke Oliver. 'We definitely think he's up to better class,' says Noonan's foreman Wes Hunter.
Len Morton couldn't be prouder of his son Daniel, trainer of Doomben Cup winner Scenic Shot. He says the victory gave him a bigger thrill than when he won the Brisbane Cup with Muros. Len says: 'If ever a horse deserved to win a Group 1, it's this bloke...It's a great thrill to win it...I stood aside four years ago to let Dan have a go at training and for him to make a good fist of it and win Group 1 races make you very proud as a parent.' Dan Morton stayed in Perth yesterday. He's prreparing his topsprinter Scenic Blast for a UK campaign.
