The low profile trainer is not rushing into decisions about 'what next' for the impressive 2YO. 'I'll let the dust settle,' he says. 'I've had an opinion of him virtually from day one and he's a very good horse...I'd like to give him one more run, whether that be in Sydney or in Brisbane, or I might even just turn him out and bring him back as a three-year-ol

Jockey Glyn Schofield is an immediate Manawanui fan. He says: 'When I took him to the outside and asked him to step forward and stretch out, he did it with aplomb.'
