Puysegur as a yearling
Puysegur is raced by her South Island breeders Willie and Karen Calder, who bought her back for $550,000 at the NZB Book One Yearling Sale this year from The Oaks Stud draft.
"She's very much like Avantage, but a slightly bigger version and hopefully she can be half as good," Willie Calder said.
Her stablemate Challa was beaten only half a neck in the 800 metre scamper and will doubtless find his turn to win in coming weeks and months.
