The well-related Marina has taken another winning trick for trainer and part-owner John Hickmott.

The Ocean Park mare’s latest success, the fourth of her career, came this week over 1100 metres at Gawler.

It’s also the family of the Gr.3 Star Kingdom Stakes winner and Group One performer Generalife.
