More Cup news: 2019 Mudgee Cup bared witness to Hammond Lane in full force
For a horse that loves taking it down to the wire, Hammond Lane certainly took it there for the 2019 Robert Oatley Vineyards Mudgee Cup Showcase (1600 metres).
The Jeff Englebrecht product jumped from the gate to lead for the first 200 metres until Jarrod Austin's (Warwick Farm) Hirokin brought on a challenge that lasted 800 metres only for Hammond Lane to show his true colours in the last 600 metres to get the job done.
