Lightly raced Testa Rossa three year-old filly Ellicazoom won the Listed WATC Burgess Queen Stakes at Ascot on Cup Day to become the first stakes-winner for former star WA mare Ellicorsam, who won the Group I SAJC Swettenham Stud Stakes.

Trained by Neville Parnham, Ellicazoom scored her second win from just four starts when posting a length victory in the 1400 metre contest over last start stakes-winner Caipirinha.

Ellicazoom as a yearlingA $180,000 Magic Millions purchase for her trainer from the Attunga Stud draft, Ellicazoom was bred by Michael Birchall and is a half-sister to stakes-placed El Doute being the best of four winners from Ellicorsam.

Ellicorsam has changed hands a couple of times in the last few years, sold most recently for $75,000 at this year's Inglis Australian Broodmare Sale to Belmont Bloodstock.

Ellicazoom is the 59th stakes-winner for Vinery Stud's stalwart sire Testa Rossa.
