A stakes-winner last season at two, the Mick Price trained Oregon’s Day had been Group placed twice since resuming from a spell, but rose to a new level for this 1600 metre assignment.
She settled back in the field for Mark Zahra and worked her way between runners
to dash away and win by two and a quarter lengths taking her overall record to
two wins and three placings from seven starts with prizemoney topping $227,000."She travelled so well and won very easy in the end,” said Mark Zahra.
Mick Price now has a lovely filly on his hands with plenty of options for the future.
"It was good to see her run the mile right out,” Price said.
"She’s a beautiful filly. There are a couple of races up in Sydney we have in mind, but we’ll just see how she pulls up.”
Oregon’s Dream was retained to race by her breeders, who also raced her dam Oregon Seal, a Group III winner up to 2100 metres.
Retired from stud duties last year, Oregon Seal has produced eight winners from eight foals to race with Oregon’s Day her third stakes-winner joining Group II winner Talent Show and stakes-winner Oregon Spirit.
Oregon’s Day is one of 12 stakes-winners for Aquis Farm’s Domesday, who covered 104 mares last year in his first season in Queensland.
