The Mick Price and Michael Kent Jr stable is considering taking Millennium Blade out to 1400m as they search for his first win before the season wraps up.

Millennium Blade is one of 11 nominations for Saturday’s TAB We’re On (1420m) at Flemington, but the connections are also contemplating waiting a week to target the Listed Oaklands Plate (1400m) at Morphettville Parks.

“I’ve got to have a talk to the owners to see which way they want to go,” Kent Jr said.

The two-year-old colt has raced only twice: he placed third over 1100m at Caulfield behind Prince Tycoon, then finished second over 1200m to Salty Pearl, also at Caulfield.

“His two runs have been good,” Kent Jr said.

“We felt last start he got to the front very early in the straight and wobbled left and right and was a sitting duck for Salty Pearl to get up on his inside and just beat him.”

“When he caught sight of her on his inside, he really challenged again late and there was a good margin back to third.”

“He’s trained on well and the way he came off the bridle early in that race, and was strong at the post, indicated to us that he should get 1400 metres.”

“He is still a maiden, but he’s a nice colt that has done everything right between runs.”

“I think Observer looks particularly hard to beat as does Patrick Payne’s horse (Buccleuch), but he’s definitely in the mix if that’s the way we go.”

Kent Jr admitted he’s unsure how far into the winter campaign Millennium Blade can go.

If he lines up on Saturday, the Listed Taj Rossi Series Final (1600m) at Flemington on July 5 could be on the radar.

“It is only his first racing preparation, so whether he keeps training on, that will be the question with him, but we will learn more from Saturday if we go that way,” Kent Jr said.

“Saturday could be a bit of a D‑day for him.”
