First Winner for Needs Further

Tara Madgwick - Thursday November 10
Encosta de Lago's reputation as a sire of sires was enhanced when his handsome Tasmanian based son Needs Further landed his first winner with his first runner at Launceston on Wednesday evening.

Promising filly Il Regalo looked good in a recent seven length barrier trial win and took that form to race day when she scored by a length and a half over 800 metres.

Needs FurtherIn winning, the John Blacker trained filly earned for her breeder-owner Max Pearce a $10,000 bonus that was offered by Armidale Stud as an incentive to breeders to book their mares into their exciting young sire Needs Further.

A Gooree Stud homebred, Needs Further won the Group III ATC Carbine Club Stakes and is a sibling to dual Group I winner Hallowed Crown, who stands at Darley in the Hunter Valley.

Il Regalo is the first winner for winning King of Kings (IRE) mare Your Call, who comes from a European family featuring dual Group I winner La Collina.

Your Call was one of 70 mares covered by Needs Further in his first season, the powerful bay standing at a fee of $3,300.
