Paris enhanced her already
considerable value with a comfortable win at Cranbourne on Wednesday.
Ben Melham produced Paris in the home straight to finish best of
all to win the 2YO Fillies Maiden Plate (1000m) at her fourth start.
A half-sister to dual Group I winner English (Encosta de Lago),
Paris (2 f Snitzel - Court) cost $800,000 as a yearling at the Inglis
Australian Easter Sale and is the 12th two-year-old winner for trainer Anthony
Freedman this season.
Paris is owned by Peter Moody and Newhaven Park Stud and
assistant trainer Sam Freedman told Racing Victoria the stable believes there
is still further improvement in Paris.
"Ben (Melham) didn't get caught up in the speed battle, he
just let her find her feet and it was good to see her with some clear running
in the straight because she showed a really nice turn of foot," Freedman
said.
"She pricked her ears at the end so she’s still got
a lot to learn.
"The owners have been really patient with her and we're in
no rush, she's probably an autumn-type filly that will get better as she gets
older."
Snitzel is advertised at $220,000 at Arrowfield Stud for the
2019 season.
