Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 15, 2018 Journalists Share Posted May 15, 2018 Two-year-old colt Melik (Aus) (Redoute’s Choice {Aus}), who at A$2.5-million was the top-priced lot at last year’s Inglis Easter yearling sale, was the eye-catching 4 3/4-length winner of a Randwick trial on Tuesday morning. Fastest of the seven away from the barriers, Melik was three wide turning into the straight under a hard hold from James McDonald. The bay pulled clear thereafter under very mild hand urging from the rider (video). It was the second trial for Melik, who is a full-brother to ‘TDN Rising Star’ Pariah (Aus), the winner of the G3 Canonbury S. and G3 San Domenico S. who enters stud at Arrowfield this year. Melik is owned by Sheikh Khalifa bin Mohammed al Maktoum and is trained, like his brother, but Peter and Paul Snowden. He was having his second trial on Tuesday, having finished third first time at Randwick on Feb. 12. View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
