Diamond Winner's Connections Leaning Toward Slipper

Written By | Bronwen Healy

Written By (Aus) (Written Tycoon {Aus}), winner of the G1 Blue Diamond S., has his connections considering a start in the G1 Golden Slipper on Mar. 24, reported Racenet.com.au. Trainer Grahame Begg is seriously considering the A$3.5-million Rosehill feature, but an official decision will not be made until early next week.

“He's come through his Blue Diamond run in great shape, a lot better than what he did the run before that,” Begg told Racenet.com.au. I am very, very happy with him and he would have to make me not happy with him for us not to go onto the Golden Slipper with him. You can read into that what you will.”

Begg is mulling a potential trial for the chestnut at Randwick on Mar. 13. If Written By did succeed, he would be the sixth Blue Diamond/Golden Slipper winner and the second Slipper winner for Written Tycoon after champion juvenile and 'TDN Rising Star' Capitalist (Aus) struck in 2016.
