One to Watch – Newcastle

Tara Madgwick - Monday December 13

Paul Messara and Dundeel gave us the ‘One to Watch’ on Monday with an impressive debut winner at the Beaumont meeting at Newcastle.

Three year-old filly Mirror Queen was favourite for the 1350m maiden and surged clear at the finish to open up a margin and win by more than three lengths in a dominant display.

Mirror Queen was recorded as a $190,000 Magic Millions Book 2 purchase from the Arrowfield draft for her trainer and runs in the Arrowfield colours.

Mirror Queen as a yearling.

She is the sixth winner from seven foals to race from Illusionary, a winning half-sister by Hussonet (USA) to Group II winners Chase the Rainbow and Ms Funovits.

Illusionary died in 2019 and her final foal is a Dundeel colt that Arrowfield sold  for $140,000 at Inglis Easter this year to Yes Bloodstock.
