WELL a start HAS NOT been ruled out and trainer Lindsey Smith may start him in the in the McKinnon Stakes next Saturday, and depending how he pulls up may still start in the big one. AND just to add to the intrigue a group of WA owners have nearly finalised a deal to buy managing part-owner Janelle Harvey's share in the horse.
I love it!!!  |
The word is that part-owner Elio Galante is forming or has formed a syndicate to back an offer of more than $1 million to buy out the 60% cent share held by managing owner Janelle Harvey. Only condition is that Plastered undergoes a thorough vet examination over the next fews days and is passed sound. |
