AS reported two weeks ago, Irish-bred Kings Will Dream has been a real bargain, bought for at 7,500 guineas having been trained by Micky Hammond. A winner again at Flemington on Saturday the Casamento gelding is now unbeaten in four since arriving in Australia and looks set now to tackle the $300,000 Mornington Cup on April 24th.

“I suppose the big test comes next as he goes to 2,400 metres at Mornington but obviously he’s a pretty smart horse,” said trainer Darren Weir. The bonus to the winner of the race is receiving a ballot-free entry into the $3 million Caulfield Cup.
