Fawkner nominated for Flemington

Monday 24 February 2014, 6:08pm

Caulfield Cup winner Fawkner could make his autumn return in a Group Three race at Flemington on Saturday.

The Lloyd Williams-owned galloper has not started since his fast-finishing sixth in the Melbourne Cup last spring and is among 20 nominations for the TAB Rewards Stakes (1400m).

Fawkner has topweight of 61kg and is joined in the entries by stablemates Foundry, Ranked, Tanby and The United States.

Former Irish horse Foundry got his Australian career off to a winning start in a 1400m open handicap at Flemington on February 15.

The Peter Snowden-trained Pinwheel has also been nominated for the 1400m race along with the Tony McEvoy-trained Group winner Mouro.

Pinwheel was third to Moment Of Change in Saturday's Group One Futurity Stakes at Caulfield and has 59kg.
