CAULFIELD
Fresh from a spell following his triumphant trip to England, Nature Strip kicks off his spring campaign at Randwick this Saturday in the $1 million The Shorts — a Group 2 dash over 1100 metres. The world’s best sprinter scored a historic and clearcut victory in the King’s Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot in June and tuned up for his Oz racing return with a nice trial hitout over 900m this month. Now eight, the champ now boasts 21 victories and is nearing a staggering $20 million in earnings.
