Man Of Peace proves a marvel

Astute Canberra trainer Matt Dale describes evergreen gelding Man Of Peace as a “marvel”.

And it’s easy to see why as Man Of Peace maintains his outstanding form.

The son of former Kooringal Stud stallion Zariz notched his 12th win when he led throughout at the Kensington track on Saturday (July 18).

Man Of Peace has been a terrific money spinner for Dale and his connections, who include Bern Milne, Mick Mullins, Cath Heywood and Ray and Therese Burt.

The seven-year-old has accumulated more than $480,000 by finishing in the top three at 30 of his 51 appearances.

Since resuming, Man Of Peace has finished third in the Wagga Town Plate (April 30), won at Randwick (May 23), run third at Randwick (June 6) and secured a second at Flemington before his latest Kensington win.
