The Robbie Griffiths and Mathew De Kock stable is looking forward to getting back to Flemington where they will saddle Rey Magnerio in the VRC Super Saturday, 9 March Handicap.
Griffiths and de Kock prepared a winner at the final Flemington meeting for 2023 before Magnapur got the ball rolling for the stable on New Year's Day.
Rey Magnerio is no stranger to success at Flemington having taken out a Grand Handicap over 1100m on the final day of last year's Melbourne Cup Carnival.
That win was sandwiched between a Sale 1000m win and a first-up win at Geelong on January 6 when Reg Magnerio was heavily supported.
Rey Manerio steps out to 1200m on Saturday, a trip he was successful over at his second start at Sale back last September.
Once a backmarker, Rey Magnerio has responded to racing with his last two wins achieved being ridden closer to the speed.
"He seems the more he's racing, the more on-speed that he is racing. Early doors he was out the back and would like a bit of speed, but his last couple of wins, he's been right up there on the speed, and I think he's going to be racing in that kind of fashion these days," de Kock said.
Jye McNeil will bid for a fourth straight win aboard Rey Magnerio after the jockey's apprentice brother Logan rode the gelding in his first four starts.
