Sun
Stud's Love Conquers All added an impressive eighth winner to his tally when
Savanna Amour bolted in at the Sunshine Coast on Sunday.
Third and fourth at her first two runs last month when inexperience cost her
dearly, the J and C Meagher trained filly put her best foot forward in the 1200
metre maiden.
She travelled up on the pace just behind the leaders and powered clear to win
by four and a quarter lengths.
Savanna Amour was a $100,000 Inglis Classic purchase from the Toolooganvale Farm
draft for Ontrack Thoroughbreds, who sourced Group I winner Brazen Beau from
the same sale.
She is the third winner for Savanna La Mar, a half-sister by Stravinsky (USA)
to Group III winner Voodoo Beat from the
family of Golden Slipper winner and sire Marauding.
With eight Australian winners on the board, Love Conquers All shares top
billing on the First Season Sires List by winners with another Queensland based
sire in Sidereus.
Few so called experts would have predicted this outcome at the start of the
season! (me included!)
A Group II winning son of Mossman, Love Conquers All stands at Sun Stud
Queensland at a fee of $13,750.
