ARRAN BAY made a sound return to racing and flies second-up. PLENTY OF AMMO resumes after notching up four straight wins.

He also represents all of racing’s gallant losers, finishing second to top horses in no less than seven group races, including Jeune’s 1994 Melbourne Cup. Paris Lane, a.k.a. Percy, became one of the original retirees and a popular horse at ‘Living Legends’, Woodlands, reaching the grand equine age of 30 before his passing in July 2021.
