Gary Portelli is delighted with the way Golden Slipper winner She Will Reign is shaping for her Everest tilt and can't wait to see her back at the races in the Moir Stakes at Moonee Valley on Friday night. She Will Reign won a Rosehill barrier trial on Tuesday under Kerrin McEvoy, who will ride her in the 1000m group1, and has "bloomed since", according to her trainer. "She is one of those horses that needs work to bring the best out in her and it has been amazing to see how she has been since that trial," Portelli said. "... she is ready to go and bouncing around."
