Our three two year old fillies performed very well at Menangle on Sunday April 27. Artistic Angel ( Shezacullen ) was in the Consolation and despite meeting with interference finished the race off resolutely to finish third. She will be further improved by her trip away.
Two fillies contested the Final; the unbeaten Rosie OReilly ( Limerick Star ) and Queen Of Pop ( Top Tempo ) . Rosie OReilly led from barrier 5 with the favourite Supersonic Miss on her back. Queen of Pop settled one out one back from 4 but was pushed back 2 places in the running line as Our Awesome Girl and Bamako Mali circled the field. Chris Alford pulled out 3 wide on Queen Of Pop at the 600 and she was pushed 4 wide on the turn , yet she continued to come at the leaders ,winning by a half neck in 1.57.4. It was a performance full of merit.
Rosie OReilly raced roughly for a stride or two coming into the straight and appeared to slightly choke down but finished off the race in 5th placing. Her performance during the Series has been impressive and she appears to have a bright future. All three will now have a short let up to recover from their first trip away from home.
