Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 5 Journalists Share Posted July 5 Kuroyanagi on the way to the barriers prior to the running of the Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes at Caulfield. (Photo by Scott Barbour/Racing Photos) South Australia’s Kuroyanagi targets a home-state black-type win, with trainer Will Clarken dreaming of spring features in Melbourne and Sydney. The Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m) placegetter returned quietly with a 600-metre jump-out at Murray Bridge, pleasing both Clarken and jockey Ben Price. Clarken eyes the Listed Lightning Stakes (1050m) at Morphettville for her comeback, aiming for a stakes win after Group 1 and Group 2 placings. “All being well, we’ll trial her at Balaklava in seven days and then a gallop on Good ground, aiming for the Lightning,” Clarken told Racing.com. “It’ll hinge on her first-up run, but Melbourne and Sydney races are options. It was a great year for juveniles, so we’ll navigate carefully. “Our focus is on securing black-type and building momentum.” Horse racing news View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
