Talented Mihaul remains undefeated
26 Mar 2018The Goodwood Stud-bred and sold Mihaul retained his unbeaten record with an outstanding return at Matamata this afternoon.
The son of Iffraaj won his first two starts for trainer Allan Sharrock before undergoing surgery to remove bone chips.

“I haven’t got the facilities to work him,” Sharrock said. “He’s had bone chips removed so I said to the owners he would be better off with Moira Murdoch.
“I didn’t want to lose him, but he deserves the best chance and I haven’t got a swimming pool or a treadmill.”
Mihaul was making his first appearance for 22 months when he accounted for his Rating 75 rivals at Matamata in the hands of Leith Innes.
The four-year-old is out of the stakes-performed General Nediym mare Lol was a $40,000 Karaka purchase by Sharrock.
