Medaglia D'Oro
A dark grey with a bold white blaze, Tenley is from Fratianne, a winning Lonhro grand-daughter of dashing grey Group I winner Skating, whose descendants include Group I winner Juste Momente and Golden Slipper winner Vancouver, who is also by Medaglia D'Oro.
Tenley was easy in the market and settled back in the field, but hit the line hard when angled into the clear and snatched a short head win in the 1100 metre maiden over the favourite Blazing Miss.
In the very next race it was Medaglia D'Oro again with the Chris Waller trained three year-old filly Zalatte being well backed and delivering for punters with a strong long neck win in the 1250 metre maiden.
A $300,000 NZB Premier purchase from the Blandford Lodge draft for Kaha Syndicate / Mulcaster Bloodstock, Zalatte is the first winner for Zabeel mare Za Star, who is closely related to triple Group I winner Lucia Valentina.
Medaglia D'Oro stood at a fee of $110,000 for his past three seasons in Australia and his last foals are being born this spring.
He has seven entries for 2019 Magic Millions and two for Inglis Classic.
