Scorpion and Mahler into quarantine |
|
Irish trainer Aidan O'Brien's duo of Melbourne Cup hopefuls, Mahler and Scorpion, have started their two weeks of quarantine at Australia's Sandown racetrack in Victoria. The talented Scorpion will be the mount of Mick Kinane while a local Australian jockey, Stephen Baster, has picked up the interesting spare ride of Mahler. The $5million Emirates Melbourne Cup, 'the race that stops a nation,' takes place at Flemington on Tuesday, November 6.
