John
Sargent won the Group I VRC Oaks with Alamosa filly Kirramosa and has found
another nice daughter of the same sire in Tinkermosa, who won the $80,000 Murrumbidgee
Southern Cross Guineas at Wagga on Friday.
Having her third run back from a spell, Tinkermosa improved on two frustrating second
palcigns to score a determined short head win in the 1600 metre feature.
She hit the line hard in a manner suggesting longer races will be within her
scope.
A $50,000 NZB Select Yearling Sale purchase for her trainer from the draft of Wellfield
Lodge, who stand her sire Alamosa, Tinkermosa has two wins and four placings
from eight starts with prizemoney topping $80,000.
She is one of five winners from Tinkerbabu, a winning Giant's Causeway (USA)
daughter of Group I winner La Bella Dama.
