(Photo by Brett Holburt/Racing Photos) Last weekend’s Listed Winter Championship Series Final (1600m) at Flemington saw Munhamek clinch his third consecutive victory. The eight-year-old, trained by Nick Ryan, is set to be targeted at the Group 2 PB Lawrence Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield on August 17. “He pulled up super,” Ryan confirmed the gelding’s positive post-race condition in an interview with Racing.com. “He was down at the beach this morning at Altona, he’s going to head down to Fulmen Park for the week; in the paddock and on the water walker later on in the week and then probably back next week.” The absence of Mr Brightside from the PB Lawrence Stakes has further motivated Ryan. “That certainly gives us a lot of encouragement to go there,” the trainer said. “I’m sure it will still be a strong race, but no Mr Brightside is a big help. “He’s (Munhamek) going to have that rating now where he’s going to have to go to some races like that, there’s not going to be many other options.” Horse racing news View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
