This Group 3 win marked the Grenfell family’s fourth championship title in five years at the Wagga Wagga Racecourse, solidifying their legacy in the sport and course.
Paw Vortex’s achievement comes on the heels of a stellar showing during the Melbourne Cup qualifiers, though his path through a Prelude race prevented participation in the main event.
Now shifting focus to The Meadows, Paw Vortex is gearing up for the Group 1 Silver Chief series, which is set to start early in December.
Currently, no Australian betting sites have odds out for the Silver Chief Series.
