She's back...Barrier neck-turner Dariana has been cleared by Queensland Racing stewards to run in Sat's $500,000 Grp 1 Queensland Derby after trialling satisfactorily on Tuesday morning.
Trainer Tony Noonan will know on Thursday whether his stable stars Ortensia and Kutchinsky will get the green light to run on Saturday in the Stradbroke and Derby at Eagle Farm. Urine tests have been taken from the pair after Ortensia tested positive to an unnamed substance when winning the Grp 1 Galaxy at Randwick on April 17. 'We tested both gallopers on Saturday at their stables in Deagon and we should have the results of those samples on Thursday,' says Queensland Racing chief steward Wade Birch.
The Bart Cummings trained Russeting has secured a start in the Stradbroke following the withdrawal of the injured Kiwi raider Fritzy Boy.
