Galloper’s finally back
KINGS Will Dream has recovered from a fractured pelvis suffered in the Cox Plate and has been given the all-clear to resume full work.
Sent off favourite when sixth in the Caulfield Cup, the Irish-bred import was retired from last year’s Cox Plate, won by Winx, and it was touch and go whether the five-year-old would survive.
Managing owner Brad Spicer said his heart sank that day, as he feared he might lose the gelding. “We were lucky the artery ... clotted because if it didn’t, he was in a lot of strife,” Spicer told RSN927.
