Robert Heathcote has never won the Magic Millions Classic or Guineas at the Gold Coast and is banking on the law of averages with Abounding on Saturday.
Abounding will spearhead the Heathcote army of nine runners on Magic Millions day and is a $8 chance in the Magic Millions Guineas over 1400 metres.
As well as Abounding, Heathcote also has three runners in the QTIS Magic Millions race with star sprinter Rothfire, a $3.20 favourite, being joined by Stuttering ($41) and Hatchet ($6).
“It’s the biggest and strongest Magic Millions representation I’ve ever had,” Heathcote said.
“But, unfortunately, the barrier gods haven’t been kind to us with Rothfire and Prince Of Boom drawing wide.
