Street Boss Filly Belts Them in Blue Diamond Prelude

Mark Smith - Saturday February 6

Godolphin’s Street Boss (USA) filly Arcaded flagged her Blue Diamond credentials when making it two from two in Saturday’s Group II Neds Blue Diamond Prelude (1100m) for fillies at Caulfield.

In a dominant performance, Damian Lane eased the James Cumming-trained filly four wide before the turn. She swept down the centre of the track to defeat the Nicconi filly Scorched Earth by two and a quarter lengths with the Wolf Cry filly Wolves a further one and three-quarter lengths back in third.

Arcaded was sent off favourite on the strength of a facile win over the same track and distance on January 13.

“Once again Damian got her into a lovely rhythm and flow, so he was able to unleash that punch that she has, and she put them away in good style,” Godolphin stable representative Sean Keogh said.

“That’s two starts and two wins now. She’s attacked the line like a really good filly.”

The Godolphin homebred is the first foal of the stakes-placed Lonhro mare Gloriette.

Placed in the Group III VRC Maribyrnong Plate and Listed MVRC Valley Pearl, Gloriette is a half-sister to stakes-placed Grunderzeit (Street Cry).

Her dam Vienese (Snitzel) won the Group III SAJC Jansz Stakes and Listed MRC Quezette Stakes and is a sister to Snitzel and a half-sister to Hinchinbrook.

Gloriette has a colt foal by Epaulette and was bred back to the son of Commands again last spring.

Arcaded becomes the 45th stakes-winner for Darley Stud’s Street Cry (IRE) stallion Street Boss (USA).
