Hinchinbrook
is no stranger to success in the West having sired brilliant filly Whispering Brook
to dominate the Perth two year-old events a couple of seasons back and at Ascot
on Wednesday we saw a filly that may
well do the same.
The Simon Miller trained Amelia’s La Bout was sent out a hot favourite when making
her debut and got the job done in style when cruising clear to win over 1200
metres by a length and a half.
A $280,000 Inglis Easter Session II purchase for Amelia Park Racing and
Breeding from the Willow Park draft, Amelia’s La Bout is the fourth winner from
Dane With Zeel, an unraced sister To Group II winner and $1million earner
Natural Blitz.
Amelia’s La Bout is the eighth two year-old winner this season for
Hinchinbrook, who is second to only Spirit of Boom for two year-old winners.
