Things were more or less going to plan in the last race at Borrowdale Park on Sunday – a 1000m MR 70 Handicap – then along came Changa and the more fancied Major Vaughan, Ebony Silver and Supa Challenge had to be content with the minor places. Mogok’s daughter, with JP van der Merwe aboard, burst through the pack, winning by 1.25 lengths.
Changa is trained by Kirk Swanson and owned by Nadia Barnwell and John Koumides. Nadia is also the breeder. The three-year-old filly has now won twice and been placed twice from four starts.
