Description
Mercian Hymn, a son of Siyouni, is a 2-time winner in the UK, and has finished in the top 4 on 5 occasions from his 9 Australian starts. 2 of those came in Saturday company at Caulfield earlier this preparation.
Before his final start for current connections (expected March 22), he's rated 61, Class 2 eligible and has been competitive from 1600m-2400m, so he's well-positioned to provide his new owners a quick return.
UPDATE - Mercian Hymn raced at Warrnambool on March 25, finishing 8/8. The horse travelled too keenly and didn't want to play a part in the straight. He was vetted on course with no abnormalities found, and follow up inspection the next morning revealed no reasons for the poor performance.
