Happy man...Mark Kavanagh has welcomed back his superstar filly Atlantic Jewel to his Flemington stable. Atlantic Jewel, unbeaten in five starts and rated the best 3YO filly in the world at a middle distance, spent extra time spelling over summer after a scintigraphy in December showed ''hot spots'' in her pelvic region. Fortunately, there was no bone damage. Kav says: 'Obviously it's great to have her back in the stable but until she gets back into the system and we can really judge where she is fitness-wise and to see how the injury has reacted, it's impossible to assess where or when she will kick-off.' There's even a chance she may not race in the autumn.
