Semillion to bounce back at The Valley

Wayne Hawkes is hoping to see an improved showing from three-year-old Semillion at the Group 2 McEwen Stakes (1000m) on Saturday. Semillon came last in the Caulfield Vain Stake on August 13. Hawke Racing-trained sprinter won his debut at Moonee Valley on soft ground. Two wins from five starts have come on affected ground, although the colt did run second on a good track in a Blue Diamond Prelude and fifth in BlueDiamond Stages at Caufield.
