One to Watch – Mornington

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday December 20
The Devitt, Gordon and Hayes families have enjoyed much success with former star sprinter Nicconi and his offspring with this impressive debut winner at Mornington set to add to their enjoyment.

NicconiThree year-old gelding Strictly Legit made it look all too easy when bolting clear to win the 1000 metre maiden by nearly four lengths for the Hayes / Dabernig training partnership.

Bred and retained to race by the Devitt, Gordon and Hayes families, Strictly Legit is a half-brother to this season's stakes-winning juvenile Wait No More and is the third winner from three foals to race from stakes-placed Divine Choice.

Divine Choice has been a regular visitor to Widden Stud and has a yearling filly and colt foal by Nicconi's stable mate Sebring.

Strictly Legit is the 60th winner of the season for Nicconi, who has enjoyed a great year and has sired stakes-winners Faatinah, Caipirinha and Hear the Chant this season.

Nicconi has eight entries for Magic Millions and three for Inglis Classic.
