Trained by Raquel Mills, Precious Memories scored a half head win in the 1500 metre contest, her second win from 10 starts with prizemoney topping $190,000.
Retained to race by her breeders, Precious Memories is the best of two winners
from unraced Charge Forward mare Precious Moment, a half-sister to Group III
winner Mirrasolo and daughter of stakes-winner St Therese.
The
current yearling from Precious Moment, a filly by Your Song, will be offered asLot 19 by Touchstone Farm at the 2017 Magic Millions Yearling Sale in Perth.
Precious Moment was one of 220 mares covered last spring by Widden Stud's current hot sire Star Witness, who has had eight winners in the past seven days as well as top colt Star Turn , who resumed from a spell with a close third in the Group I VRC Lightning Stakes.
Star Witness sired Well Sprung to win at Flemington on Saturday and Stellar Collision to win at Moonee Valley on Friday night, while Pumpkin Pie won the $150,000 Country Championships heat at Goulburn on Saturday and Heaven's Delight won the Magic Millions Tasmanian 2YO Classic earlier in the week.
Star Witness is on a winning roll as we head into Autumn and has 10 entries for the Inglis Premier Yearling Sale, while Stratum has half a dozen.
