Darley
shuttler Dawn Approach (IRE) is headed back to the Hunter Valley this spring
and added a promising new winner to his tally with an easy debut victory at
Doomben on Wednesday for Inflammable.
Trained by Gillian Heinrich and Ben Rodgers, Inflammable was sent out favourite
for the 1110 metre maiden despite being the only two year-old in the field.
Despite giving away strength and experience to all of his rivals, Inflammable
forged clear to win by the best part of a length with Luke Dittman in the
saddle.
A $170,000 Magic Millions purchase from the Oaklands Stud draft for TCH
Bloodstock, Inflammable is the third winner from Flammable, a half-sister by
Ferocity to stakes-placed Matador.
Inflammable is the fourth Australian winner for New Approach's champion son Dawn
Approach, who stands at a fee of $19,250.
His four winners are all metropolitan winners with Group II placed Goings the
best of them.
