Maestro to call tune

Sparta Maestro produced one of the greatest performances ever seen on these shores when lowering the 600yd track record at Shelbourne Park last weekend.

The previous record of Late Late Show was seen as almost untouchable, but Sparta Maestro not only beat the record, he took a whopping ten spots off the mark.

Phil Gough’s powerhouse is back in action over course and distance tonight and he will start an unbackable favourite in Heat 3 of the Billy Mulvaney Snr and Jnr Memorial 600.
