(Photo by George Sal/Racing Photos) Dual Group 1 winner Magic Time will skip the Group 1 Tatts Tiara (1400m) after finishing nearly ten lengths behind Stefi Magnetica in Queensland’s premier Group 1 race, the Stradbroke Handicap (1400m), over the weekend. Melbourne trainer Grahame Begg announced that Magic Time, who claimed the Group 1 Sir Rupert Clarke (1400m) and Group 1 All Aged Stakes (1400m) this season, will be taking a break. “(Eagle Farm) was a very funny track as it was hard and loose on top,” Begg told Racing.com. “She had excuses in the Kingsford Smith as she twisted a plate when jumping and also got galloped on in the race. “I’ll give her a month and then assess whether we need to give her longer or not. It’s a tight turnaround, though.” Horse racing news View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
