Trainer Tony Noonan has ambitious international plans for his Galaxy winner Ortensia. The Grp 1 KrisFlyer 1200m in Singapore next month is the likely #1 target. It's no wonder TN is getting excited about Ortensia. Her brilliant last to first win at Randwick was breathtaking. He says: 'She's the best I've trained...she's filled out into a magnificent mare.' TN is keen for Ortensia to have a second crack at the Grp 1 Stradbroke at Eagle Farm. 'We were a bit stiff in that race last year,' he says.
