Another G1 Victory for Think It Over
The $1million Group I ATC Verry Elleegant Stakes (1600m) at Randwick on Saturday was supposed to be a walk in the park for glamour mare Fangirl, but once again, as we have seen him do so many times in the past, So You Think’s battle seasoned warrior Think It Over was having none of that.
Underrated So You Think mare Saint Alice added valuable winning black type to her blossoming career record when she took out the Listed Matamata Veterinary Services Equine Kaimai Stakes (2000m) in a blanket finish.
There aren’t many grey horses by So You Think, but we saw one win on debut at Benalla on Tuesday and the horse he beat is a half-brother to boom filly Learning to Fly.
Another Karaka Graduate Salutes at Flemington
Talented apprentice jockey Celine Gaudrey picked up a winning double at Flemington on Saturday that featured plenty of connections with the New Zealand racing and breeding industry.
