Patience is a Virtue
Daniel has nothing but admiration for the group of owners in Manhattan Arch. Bowman also acknowledged the staff at the Ballarat Veterinary Clinic after Manhattan Arch scored an impressive win in a restricted race at Flemington on Saturday.
The lightly raced five-year-old was having his third run back after 80 weeks on the sidelines with numerous problems including two wind operations and a knee operation. Bowman told The Standard he rated Manhattan Arch a big chance of winning after two good runs following the long break and a solid track gallop at Terang last week.
"I was confident Manhattan Arch would be hard to beat," the group one winning trainer said.
"Patience is a big part of racing and Lorraine Dunn and her fellow owners have plenty of it. I've got to thank them for showing the trust in me. I said to them Manhattan Arch had plenty of ability and then he was struck down with a few injures but to win a race in town for them is very rewarding. I understand owning racehorses is an expensive business but sometimes it's about giving horses the time to get over whatever issues they have or to mature. The Ballarat Vet Clinic has done a magnificent job in sorting out Manhattan Arch's problems."
From his nine starts, Manhattan Arch has won two races and been in the minor place getters stall on five occasions.

JustaroundmidnightNew stable addition, Justaroundmidnight, made light work of his rivals at Hamilton in the BM58 2200m Handicap.
Jacko, as he is known around the stables, was ridden by Japanese apprentice Akatsuki Tomita, who moved to Australia to further his experience as a jockey. Tomita gave him the perfect ride, sitting just off the main speed in fourth position throughout. He angled into the better going at the top of the straight, careering away to win by 2 lengths. The sea change and the new environment seems to have done the trick for Jacko and we look forward to continuing to train this consistent stayer. Congratulations to his owners, who are all new to the stable. |
Mighty Mumbles
Mumbles always showed he had a bit of talent when he was a young horse. However, there was always a reason as to why he just couldn’t put it all together. Whether it be that he was unlucky in running, he over raced, the track was too wet etc. But the penny appears to have finally dropped after his 3 month spell.
When resuming at Bendigo, James Winks delivered a ride that took all bad luck out of the equation.
All the hype was for Black Caviars son, who was returning from a lengthy spell and sent out odds on favourite.
Winks stalked Prince of Caviar as soon as the barriers opened. He moved to his outside in the home straight, mowing him down to win by a length and three quarters.
Congratulations to his owners and hopefully there is a successful preparation ahead.
