Needs Further Filly Goes Two for Two

Tara Madgwick - Monday November 28
Encosta de Lago's reputation as a sire of sires looks like being enhanced by his handsome Tasmanian based son Needs Further, whose promising filly Il Regalo made it two wins in as many starts at Hobart on Sunday.

Needs FurtherIn winning on debut earlier this month, the John Blacker trained filly earned 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.

She continued the good work in the open juvenile event over 900 metres, dashing away to win by two lengths as a hot favourite.

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.
