Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted January 18, 2021 Journalists Share Posted January 18, 2021 Smart filly Moana (NZ) (Ocean Park) pulled up worse for wear following a bumping duel with boom colt Brando (NZ) (Savabeel) in Saturday’s Gr.1 Levin Classic (1600m) in which she finished seventh behind Bonham (Per Incanto), who narrowly prevailed from Brando. The Chad Ormsby-trained daughter of Ocean Park was angling for a run between horses under Vinnie Colgan when the incident occurred 400m from home. The filly required post-race vet treatment for lacerations to the left foreleg and she will undergo further scans this week. “She had an examination and she has pulled up okay in herself, but there is a bit of skin off in a compromising spot on the back of a tendon, so she will have further scans once the swelling has subsided,” Ormsby said. “It was just one of those things where she was making her run and Vinnie (Colgan, jockey) thought she was going better than Brando at the time.” Despite being a seven-start maiden, Moana is multiple Group Two placed, having finished third in both the Hawke’s Bay Guineas (1400m) and the Eight Carat Classic (1600m).
