Tony Vasil's Carrara looked 'the goods' winning at Moonee Valley. Carrara continues to fly the flag for his sire Elvstroem, earning his second stakes success when making his seasonal return in the Listed Essendon Nissan Stakes.

He's in the Caulfield Guineas but there are plenty of other options for him...He'll either run in the Caulfield Guineas Prelude or a 1400m race at Flemington.'
