Foxwedge Filly Wins Again for Star

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday June 21
Denise Martin's Star Thoroughbreds have tasted success at Group I level with Foxwedge filly Foxplay this season and have another nice filly by the in-form Newgate Farm stallion.

Prepared by Chris Waller, three year-old filly Noire opened her account at Canterbury back in April and found her way back to the winner's circle on Wednesday.

Noire as a yearlingRidden forward by Kerrin McEvoy from an outside gate, Noire was up on the pace and kicked strongly to the line to win the 1250 metre benchmark 67 event by a head in a tight tussle.

A $135,000 Inglis Easter purchase for Star from the Highgrove Stud draft, Noire has two wins and two seconds from five starts with prizemoney topping $80,000.

She is a half-sister to stakes-placed Global Dream, Maraatib and Valoura being the seventh winner from good producer Valadon, a half-sister to Group II winners Timbourina and Media.

Noire continues a hot run for Foxwedge, who has opened up a lead on his rivals in the battle to be leading Australian Second Crop Sire.

The Group I winning son of Fastnet Rock stands at a fee of $22,000 at Newgate Farm this spring.
