Congratulations to our Dynamic Owners of our promising 2yo filly
THORSBORNE ( Hinchinbrook / Maltese) a $70,000 Magic Millions graduate from
Yarraman Park Stud.
Having won on debut in impressive fashion, leading all the way,
THORSBORNE was facing the starter for just the second time.
We had accepted in the Gr3 Sweet Embrace Stakes at Warwick Farm
on Saturday and the Bathurst Good Nugget on Sunday.
We were keen to run in the Sweet Embrace as we thought that we
could lead and be competitive, however common sense prevailed and we scratched
and went to the Gold Nugget, a race that on paper we appeared extremely well
placed.
GERALD RYAN was happier to give our filly this easier assignment
and therefore more confidence in this far easier assignment. We considered we
would be extremely hard to beat.
Starting at $1.80 on the tote and $1.60 fixed, THORSBORNE led
from the jump to the post to score an extremely easy and ever widening 4 length
x 1.8 length victory.
Ridden by Jeff Penza, our filly wanted to speed along early but
was restrained under a tight hold until the 500m when Jeff slipped her a little
reign and she bounded clear.
Swinging out to the centre of the track, away from
the fence which was rain affected with the going better out wide, our filly was
still very green and stargazed the final 200m but was far superior to her
rivals.
We were with GERALD RYAN at the Inglis Melbourne Premier Sale and
with a big grin GERALD said "ok we're off to the Magic Night ! - She
deserves a start in that race on this performance."
It proved to be a very sensible decision in hindsight and with
now 2 wins under her belt and the experience she has gained along with natural
improvement in racecraft, she could give her opponents something to worry about
at the next run.
THORSBORNE carried 58.0kgs to win Race 1 Club Lithgow - Rising
Prince - Gold Nugget, 2yo Handicap, 1100m in 1:04.90.
