Goodfella as a yearlingWith race fitness and experience on his side, Goodfella was well equipped to handle the heavy nine conditions and surged clear to win the 1200 metre maiden by a length and a half at his fourth start.

With $56,200 in prizemoney, Goodfella has moved into contention for a start in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic next month.
