Cumani hoping for Afsare return31st October 2012
Luca Cumani plans to start afresh with Afsare once he has recovered from the problem which ruled him out of last week's Sportingbet Cox Plate.
The experienced international traveller, who has competed in Italy and Turkey, appeared most unfortunate when only second in the Arlington Million and was due to be a runner in Australia's premier weight-for-age race, but he picked up a fetlock injury which could not be fully treated in time.
"Afsare is back home now, he will have his rest and hopefully he will be as good next year," Cumani said.
