AJC Derby placegetter Monaco Consul's racing career is back on...and the reason is that no-one seems interested in standing him as a sire. It now looks like the Sydney Cup is a target, and so is the Qld Derby 2400m in June. Trainer Mike Moroney says: 'It was an amazing feat for High Chaparral to sire the placegetters in the Derby, but we have not had a lot of interest from studs so he will be racing on.'
Popular jockey Peter Robl, out with a broken collarbone since January, will return to the races to ride Happily for John Thompson at Hawkesbury on Thursday. PR has been riding trackwork at Warwick Farm for several weeks. He was on 9 runners in barrier trials there last Friday.
