I seem to recall San Carlo handling the three heats in a week pretty good in Perth last year, including winning one and making the final. Drew poorly in the final and raced at the rear of the field pulling hard which does your chances no good in that company. Cant see why that experience won’t hold him and connections in good stead this time around.
As an aside the SBSW stock so far have been at their best as juveniles more so then as aged horses here and in the states, Menin Gate would need to buck that trend.
