Bowman hopes Magnapal can notch up his third metropolitan win within a year for the young trainer when he runs in a $120,000 race at Moonee Valley on Saturday.
“Magnapal is just so tough,” he said. “I’ve only had him for a year and given him eleven runs but I’ve won two city races and had a couple of placings with him. One win was at Moonee Valley and the other at Caulfield.
He’s a rising nine-year-old and has a bit of wear and tear but still puts in a 100%. I wish I had a stable of horses like him. He’s got a good record around the Valley and over the distance. I’m expecting him to finish in the top few going on his past efforts.”
