Waller chases Magic Millions records

Friday 10 January 2020, 3:35pm

Champion trainer Chris Waller does not have a runner in either of the main races but still has a chance to write Magic Millions history at the Good Coast.

No horse has won the same Magic Millions race three years in a row but Waller will have Invincibella in the Magic Millions Fillies and Mares (1300m) and Tumultuous in the Magic Millions Trophy (2400m) trying to achieve the feat.

Invincibella showed she was on course for the treble with an eye-catching sixth at Randwick in the Christmas Classic at her last start.

She was held up for a run in the straight before being beaten 2-3/4 lengths by her stablemate Madam Rogue who will run in the $1 million Magic Millions Snippets on Saturday.

Invincibella will carry 60kg on Saturday which is one kilogram more than her winning Millions weight last year and she looks well placed considering she has won the Group One Tatts Tiara and Group Two Dane Ripper in the past year.

Tumultuous has been struggling since winning his second MM Trophy when he had 54.5kg, the same weight he will carry this year.

"Both horses look in great shape. We can't fault Invincibella & Tumultuous's work on Tuesday morning was outstanding," Waller said on Twitter.
