(Photo by Brett Holburt/Racing Photos) Malua Racing is set to have a strong presence at next month’s Magic Millions Carnival, with as many as six horses likely to represent the stable, led by promising juvenile Zouclaire. The daughter of Zousain made an eye-catching debut in last weekend’s Magic Millions Victorian 2YO Classic (1100m) at Caulfield Heath, finishing 2.8 lengths behind the impressive winner, Invincible Woman. That performance has her firmly on track for the $3 million Magic Millions 2YO Classic (1200m) on the Gold Coast. “She was superb,” Troy Corstens, who trains in partnership with his father Leon and Will Larkin, told Racing.com. “We are going to have a crack (at the Magic Millions) and see if we can get in and hopefully we are right with prize-money.” Zouclaire is expected to be joined in Queensland by her three-quarter brother, Zou Sensation, who finished second in a Benchmark 84 (1200m) at Caulfield Heath on Saturday. The duo will spearhead Malua Racing’s assault alongside Group 2 Sandown Guineas (1600m) runner-up Bittercreek, Stay Silent and Stay Humble, both by Deep Field, and Capitalex, a son of Capitalist. “The prize-money up there is amazing, and the team is up and going well, so we thought we might as well have a bit of a crack,” Corstens added.
