Winner of the first at Kilmore today, Scarlet Brew, is a close relation to Nek Time.
Oh Gary Hall has a brother to Mysta Magical Mach in on Friday at GP too. That horse won $1.2mill. Our Magical Miracle looks to be a pretty nice horse
3yo filly Masterkova who won at her first start tonight is from a mare Vicky Murphy
Vicky Murphy is a half sister to several Macray's, three of whom won over $200k - Bomber, De En Ay and Same Old
It has been a strong line for breeder Ian Kitchin
Another half sister is the dam of the talented Macterra Lad

Glacier Park = Rock N Roll Heaven x Cornsilk
Is a well related 3yo having his first start in the last race at Terang on Melb Cup eve (a night meeting before a gamblers public holiday makes good sense - maybe Melton should be hosting one)
If Gavin Lang is going all that way (2hr+) for one drive when Emma Stewart already has Chris Alford there for her other starters then it must be a good thing
(Then again harness drivers a loyal nomads)
