The Chris Waller trained Makdanife won a slogging battle with fellow kiwi-bred Ocean Addict to score by a short neck in the Country Music Raceday Handicap (2400m). Waller’s Gold Coast manager Paul Shailer said he was at a loss to explain Makdanife’s poor run at the Gold Coast. “We had the vets go right over him and monitored him closely. We couldn’t find anything wrong at all,” Shailer said. “Maybe it was the fact he travelled up on the Wednesday before the Gold Coast run. It is what we usually do but maybe he didn’t like it. Makdanife will stay in Queensland to chase more distance races in coming weeks. -AAP [/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section] View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
