MAGNUS has produced his 14th individual stakes winner with the brilliant sprinter, Volcanic General, capturing the Listed (Malaysian G1) Tunku Gold Cup at Selangor on Monday.

Racing in
Australia as Volcanic Ash, the Magnus 5YO was trained by Mick Price and won

stakes.
Bred by Robert Crabtree's Dorrington Farm, Volcanic General is out of the Distant Music mare, Silverbeat who has produced three winners - all of them stakes winners - including Volcanic General's full brother Alpha Beat.
Other close relations include Group winner and Group One runnerup, Any Rhythm, and Group One winner Zarita.
