Second Winner for Shalaa

Mark Smith - Saturday January 9

Purchased for just $21,000 as a weanling, the Shalaa (IRE) filly Saasmit showed she is a filly with a future following a dominant win at her career debut in the Irongate Plate (1000m) at Murray Bridge on Saturday.

Ridden by Jessica Eaton, the Ciaron Maher and David Eustace-trained filly came with a barnstorming finish to defeat the I’m All The Talk gelding Garrire by three lengths with the Headwater filly Lamoree one and a quarter lengths back in third.
