The prominent Gold Coast<\/a>-based owner has enjoyed success only others could dream of, but the Magic Millions 2YO Classic has proved to be the nut he cannot crack<\/p>\n

Prominent Gold Coast owner Luke Henderson has had racing success most owners could only dream of, but the Magic Millions 2YO Classic is the nut he just can\u2019t crack.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The real estate agent<\/a> has won some of Australia\u2019s biggest races, but had the Magic Millions cruelly stripped off him in dramatic circumstances, when stewards upheld a protest in 2012 to relegate No Looking Back to second place behind Driefontein.<\/p>\n

Henderson is adamant it is still \u201cthe worst decision in racing\u201d he has seen, but has had other misfortunes in the race since then.<\/p>\n

Looking to bounce back in 2023, Henderson is a part owner in the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott-trained Summer Loving, who he believes is a forgotten horse in betting.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had the protest, then the following year Sweet Idea looked like she was home in the race and Real Surreal with Michael Cahill threaded the needle and got us in the last bound,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe thought we were going to get instant redemption, but it wasn\u2019t to be.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen we had the favourite a few years back with Swift Witness, so there has been a few good chances go over.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI have won a Golden Slipper, Melbourne Cup, Caulfield Cup, so this is the one I really want to chase, if not we keep going back for more.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo Looking Back won that race fair and square and she shouldn\u2019t have been relegated, what\u2019s done is done but.\u201d<\/p>\n

Also a director at the Gold Coast Turf Club, Henderson has won the Magic Millions Guineas along with The Subzero.<\/p>\n

While Summer Loving is still a maiden, Henderson says the filly has the right formlines behind Sovereign Fund in the Magic Millions Wyong Classic.<\/p>\n

\u201cHer last trial was much better and the blinkers will go on her in the race,\u201d he said. \u201cI think the way the track played on Saturday, we will need to draw and jump well.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think she\u2019s very good, a better three-year-old than she is now. If she remains sound I think she can be a Group 1 horse, whether she\u2019s ready for a Magic Millions \u2014 we will see.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn my opinion I think Sovereign Fund is the danger, his two runs have been super so I think if we can beat it, we win the race.<\/p>\n

\u201cI won\u2019t be celebrating too much if there is a tight finish. Hopefully she wins by six and there is nothing to worry about in the stewards room this time around.\u201d<\/p>\n

Summer Loving is $15 with TAB in one of the most even Magic Millions 2YO Classic fields in recent years.<\/p>\n

The barrier draw will be conducted at Surfers Paradise on Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n
