Sepoy
sired his first Australian stakes-winner last Saturday when Alizee powered home
to win the Group II ATC Tea Rose Stakes and may not have to wait long for his
second with promising Regimen staking her claim for future Black Type success
with a stylish win at Warwick Farm on Wednesday.
A Darley homebred prepared by James Cummings, Regimen raced up on the pace and
kicked on to the line to beat older mares and win the Benchmark 73 event over 1200 metres by
half a neck.
With three wins and a second from four starts, Regimen is clearly a filly on
the up as we progress through the spring.
"She's a beautiful filly, but can be a bit feisty," revealed James Cummings.
"We had to float her to the races today rather than just walked her across from
the stables as if we had done that she would have arrived in a muck lather.
"We had her in the Tea Rose, but she would never have beaten Alizee so we came
here instead."
Regimen will have her turn at Black Type with Cumming indicating the Listed ATC
Reginald Allen Stakes on October 14 might be a suitable goal.
Regimen is the best of four winners from Anabaa (USA) mare Disciplined, who
comes from the family of Group I winners Excellerator and Artistic.
The sire of 12 winners since the start of the season, Sepoy stands at Darley at
a fee of $16,500
