Widden Stud’s Zoustar had an impressive maiden winner In Japan on Sunday.
The northern hemisphere-bred Three Island (IRE) opened her winning account with a 3-lengths victory in an 18-runner 3yo maiden (1200m) at Kokura.
The Mitsuru Hashida-trained filly finished second at her lone 2yo start over 1600m at Tokyo racecourse in November.
The daughter of Zoustar had to settle for second again when making her seasonal debut over 1400m at Chukyo on January 8.
Zoustar shuttles to Tweenhills Stud, where Three Island (IRE) was conceived to a covering with the outstanding producer Entreat.
The daughter of Pivotal is the dam of Group 1 Commonwealth Cup and Group II Richmond Stakes winner Golden Horde (Lethal Force), and Listed winners Exhort (Dutch Art) and Line Of Departure (Mehmas).
Three Island was consigned by Highclere Stud to the 2021 Tattersalls October Yearling Sale, where she failed to make her 240,000gns reserve.
