The ‘King’ swings back

He made a statement in an official trial last week and King Of Swing is set to do the same at Menangle on Saturday night.

The Grand Circuit Champion rated his trial in a scintillating 1:49.9 and resumes from his unlucky third-placed effort in the Blacks A Fake Championship at Albion Park on July 24.

King Of Swing is the short-priced elect for tonight’s fast class event (race six).

Meanwhile the main feature on the card is the Group 2 Tony and Jill McGrath Trotters Cup where 14 horses will start in the 3009m feature.

Training partners Joe and Mary dominate the field with five starters headlined by Empire Bay and Revy Jay.

New South Wales Trotter of the Year Tough Monarch will have to overcome a 30m handicap to take out the feature while Drop The Hammer will start off a 20m handicap.
