All Too Hard / Mnemonic
It has been a case of third time lucky for remarkable gelding Far Too Easy, who has capped his storied career with a stunning victory in the $2 million The Kosciuszko at Randwick.
Having placed behind Front Page in the country feature for the past two years, Far Too Easy finally got the better of his arch-rival on Saturday, courtesy of a brilliant tactical ride by Craig Williams.
His victory was an emotional one for Murwillumbah trainer David Mccolm, who admitted thoughts of tackling a third Kosciuszko (1200m) was the furthest thing from his thoughts when the horse almost died from acute colitis in April.
“It has been a turbulent year for us and for him to come out and do this, I am so proud of him,” McColm said.
