Divine Rebel tackles Australian Cup
The stable are looking forward to the weekend with classy mare Divine Rebel due to take her place in the postponed Gr.1 Australian Cup.
"She is going really well," said Michael Moroney. "Her last run was much better and she is starting to hit her peak."
"She tends to find her best form once she gets up to the 2000m and beyond."
Sydney bound after Saturday Divine Rebel - who was second in last year's Sydney Cup - has had just the one run on her home track, second without much luck at Gr.3 level this time last year.
Viking Legend will also run this Saturday, drawn nicely in barrier one in the Gr.3 Randwick City Stakes. Glyn Schofield takes the ride. And on Sunday the consistent St Ives takes his place in the Pakenham Cup.
Meanwhile the injured King Pulse is improving with x-rays taken on Tuesday showing that his damaged shoulder is sitting well. The prognosis is pretty good at this stage but he will need a lengthy rest.
BECOME PART OF THE MORONEY SUCCESS STORY!
This good looking colt (pictured) caught the eye of Paul Moroney at the recent Inglis Classic Sale and we are looking for owners to race him.
He is from the first crop of Danehill's extra fast son Strada - a dual Listed winner whose dam is the wonderful mare Shindig.
A half brother to two winners, he is out of the metropolitan winning mare Aubade - half sister to the multiple city winners Lodgent and My Point.
This is the family of current WA topliner God Has Spoken and the tough stakes winners Mooball and La Posette.
Ring Anthony Feroce on 0412 084 132 for further details.
