Change of tack for Folklore

NZHarnessNews

by Jonny Turner Jonny Cox hopes a sharp change of tack can have Folklore in the winner’s circle at Motukarara on Thursday. The mare will revert to grass track racing and get behind the standing start tapes on the back of a more customary mobile sprint on Invercargill Cup Day. Known for her sharp turn of foot, it has only been getting too far back in the field that has stopped Folklore from putting her hoof in the till this time in. Cox hopes the mare can step away cleanly…
