2026 Thorndon Mile<\/div>\n
No. 1 Legarto<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

LEGARTO (2)<\/strong> is the well-drawn favourite set to get a dream run from gate two and bounce back to winning form.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a little while between drinks from this topliner for Ken & Bev Kelso with the bonny daughter of Proisir chasing her first victory since mid-Feb last year.<\/p>\n

Yes, she gives the weight away carrying the 58kg on Saturday, but she oozes class and ticks plenty of boxes to improve on her third last start behind Kingswood in the Zabeel Classic over 2000m on Boxing Day.<\/p>\n

Kept fresh since and I like her back to a mile which she\u2019s got a lovely record over (9:4-1-1).<\/p>\n

Has been far from disgraced and is fit third-up ready to fire.<\/p>\n

Ryan Elliot knows her well, gets conditions to suit and looks right in this up to her ears.<\/p>\n
