Malkovich just holds the call with Ladbrokes.com.au for the feature race at Flemington on Wednesday, the Kensington Stakes (1000m).
The Bjorn Baker stable is fast proving itself to be one of the best in Australia when it comes to a hit-and-run mission and they have Malkovich lined up for the straight course, a track he likes, and better for the first up run at Rosehill, he holds the call at $3.10.
He holds it, just, over Najem Suhail at $3.40. Katsu, resuming for Grahame Begg, is at $5.00, clear of Rich Fortune at $6.50, in from $9 after touching $5.50.
