2024 Maryborough 120m Mens Gift

55 entries for the 2024 installment of the Maryborough New Years Day Highland Gathering Gift. The backmarker is Cooper Sherman who showed some great form at Geelong as well as in the 150m Athletics Victoria race recently with a windy 15.49! Arben Dani (3m) will run his first ever 120m Gift after winning silver in the 100m at the 2022/23 Victorian State Championships in 10.61 (clocking a 10.45 in the semis).

Jack Boulton makes a return running from 3.5m with Jackson Bennett receiving a lift to 4.25m. Liam Moss comes across from SA and will go from 4.5m whilst Tom Templeton, we didn't see him at Waverley but if he's near his 10.5-10.6 shape, will be dangerous from a mark of 4.75m.

Lawson Power runs off 5m a well established ammo runner over 400m and Aaron Peter-Budge is entered off 5.25m. APB is also entered for Bay Sheffield so will be interesting to see if he is taking the Mortlake win and having a crack at another or will hold the mark for Stawell...

Musa Kamara was impressive at Waverley and goes from 6.5m while Dashiell Muir has been eye-catching across a number of events and runs from 6.75m. 2023 Maryborough winner, 2023 Essendon 70m and 200m winner, Chris Vi will start from 7m. Kenneth Vuong from NSW will look to be dangerous from 7.25m after clocking 10.79 over 100m last season. Daniel White-Alikakos (7.75m) will be one to watch after impressive runs at Terang and Waverley but may have to see how he pulls up from Bay. Tom Griffin showed good form at Waverley and could be a factor off 8.5m.

Quality summary as always Dona, we're expecting 'Mura Musa' to win after his Waverley performance
