Moonee Valley: Mouth Watering Clash Of Summer Stars
3 years ago - Sportingbase
THE clash of the two in-form sprinters of the summer in Melbourne, Jigsaw and Snapper in the Group 2 Australia Stakes (1200 metres) is the highlight of the racing program at The Valley.
Jigsaw has won his last three starts including the Listed Christmas Stakes at Sandown on Boxing Day.
Snapper took out the Standish Handicap at Flemington on January 14.
It promises to be a fascinating race as both horses like to lead and during the week their respective trainers, Cindy Alderson (Jigsaw) and Mike Moroney (Snapper) said they would both like their horses in that position.
Alderson said to Racing.com that Jigsaw loved The Valley and she was confident he can run a strong 1200 metres.

Moroney said Snapper also loved The Valley and had performed well in last year’s Group 1 William Reid Stakes which was a great form reference for this race.
Perth owner Bob Peters will be represented by his pair of topliners Superstorm and Western Empire who are both now trained at Pakenham by John Leek.
Peters told Racing.com that both gallopers would be better suited over 1400 metres in the Orr Stakes.
