Former New Zealand pacer Duke Of Cornwall is being aimed at some major Australian features following his winning debut in the country at Newcastle last Friday.
Arriving in Sydney in January, the son of Sweet Lou made an impression winning first-up for trainer Belinda McCarthy rating one minute and 56.6 seconds.
“I really like him, he feels like he has a big motor but is still immature,” said the reinsman.
“He’ll have a few runs in Sydney and then aim at the Brisbane Winter Carnival.”
During the Queensland Constellations Carnival the main races for Duke Of Cornwall are the $300,000 The Rising Sun and the $100,000 QLD Derby.
He was purchased by American owner Richard Poillucci in January for a deal reported to be worth $500,000.
Meanwhile, the McCarthy stable will chase glory at Goulburn today with five horses engaged.
All runners will be driven by Jack Callaghan.
