Just thought I would make a thread to follow this potential superstar.
Quickest time at the Meadows this year in 29.55 in only his 7th start. Only 0.17 off the track record on a wetish track, could be anything!
In tomorrow at Sandown with box 1, hoping he gets a clean jump and can put his stamp on the Melb cup contentions.
I am a little bias as I bred him but super happy for my broodie Chloe Louise. Only sold the Tommy pups for 2k a pop. She is due back on in the next few weeks as well and am thinking of sending her to Jungle Deuce

Well done on breeding him. I hope she throws some more like him for you. Very exciting times ahead for owners and yourself .

another nice win for Morton at Sandown in 29.36, heading towards the Melbourne cup.
Surely a very good chance at a Phoenix slot. Fastest time at the meadows this year and now 6 from 9 overall

Joe Borg had her until just before racing. Then we bought her off him and raced/bred her from there

Morton finally cracks his group 1 bunny winning the Gold bullion last weekend coming from midfield and catching all natural in the final stride. 4 from 4 in QLD in his 2 trips.
Into the Temlee this weekend and drawn box 4. Havent seen a dog draw so many bad boxes in a row at the top level before.
Last 12 boxes have been - 5,4,6,7,6,6,5,1,5,4,4,5
Looking forward to seeing him back at the meadows next few weeks for the Temlee and Aus cup. If he draws a good box watchout

Top field in the Temlee , all the best to all runners , a great mix of age / types and new or underrated sires on show in this race
Good each way bet Morton imop 7/1 !?!? Not a great beginner but seems to find a way even with his rediculous bunch of middle draws !
Finds a spot thru first turn ? He will over run them on the line
Great chase traits like his own sire

Went even faster in the Aus cup Semi finals - 29.53 beating his old PB of 29.55. All he has to do is draw a box.
Hopefully draws something good for the final tomorrow

The mother of Morton, Chloe Louise has just come back on season.
We are doing a repeat mating to Tommy Shelby. Hopefully we get another few handy ones like we did from this litter that produced Morton.
The mums 2nd litter to out of range are breaking in now and think theres going to be another few handy ones in there
