Lee Freedman will be hoping to come away from Moonee Valley with a winner or two tonight.  He can certainly sign off on the right note if multi-million dollar yearling Master Of Design gets a run from fourth emergency in the Simpson Construction Hcp (Race 7 at 9.45pm AEDT).

Master Of Design (4h Redoute’s Choice – Urge To Merge by Last Tycoon) is bred to win anything.  His dam is a winning sister Champion South African filly Tracy’s Element and leading NZ sire Towkay and she is also a half-sister to the Danehill stakes winners Cullen and Danasinga.

Tracy’s Element is the dam of brilliant mare Typhoon Tracy (Red Ransom), a G1 winner of the VRC Myer Classic and Coolmore Classic.

Urge To Merge has had five to race for as many winners starting with Suntagonal (Octagonal), a G1 winner of the Greyville Champion Stakes in South Africa.  She is also the dam of Allied Force (Redoute’s Choice) who looked a star in the making this time last year when spacing his rivals at Bendigo and then winning twice at Moonee Valley.

Master Of Design is raced by Sheikh Mohammed and cost $2.1 million from the Arrowfield draft at the 2007 Inglis Easter yearling sale.  He won by four lengths at Seymour in May and, after a 22 week spell, was run down by Rescheduled at Yarra Glen on October 24.

Anything less than a convincing win next time out will disappoint Darley.  If he misses a run at the Valley, Freedman has him nominated for Sale next Tuesday and Bendigo next Thursday.
