Grahame Begg leads double pronged attack on Flemington’s Standish Handicap

Grahame Begg is the trainer of Rose Quartz and Vespertine. Rose quartz is a $5 favourite for Saturday's Group 3 Standish Handicap at Flemington. Vesperine is on the second line of betting at $6.50. Bebb will saddle up British Columbia for the closing race. British Canada finished second at Sandown on Boxing Day. The horse is better suited on fast ground. It's sort of a bonus that British Canadian can handle the wet tracks. The four-year-old finished with a second place at the Sandow on Christmas Day and Beff is happy with her preparation.
