Dual Group 3-winning stayer Muramasa may yet extend his spring campaign, with the five-year-old gelding under consideration for Saturday’s Group 2 Zipping Classic (2400m) at Caulfield.

Trained by Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young, the son of Deep Impact was ruled out of the Group 1 Melbourne Cup (3200m) after Racing Victoria stewards deemed him unsuitable to race.

However, he has continued to work off the track and impressed connections with a strong trial at Cranbourne last Monday.

“He trialled up really well, and he’s got to pass a trot-up in front of our vets and then be cleared by Racing Victoria vets, and then we’re good to go. We’re really happy with him,” Young told Racing.com.

Muramasa has not been seen on race day since his third-place finish in the Group 3 Geelong Cup (2400m) on October 23.
