Breeders Stakes (G3)

Age: 3yo Type: OPEN

The winner Sheez Flawless never gave anything else a look in taking the front early and running her rivals ragged to capture the G3 3yo event. It was her fourth win from ten starts and the 3yo filly clocked a slick 1:08.89 on a day of fast times but this was the quickest. As a comparison the Open Handicap sprint was run and won in 1:09.28 or two and a half lengths slower. Sheez Flawless has certainly come good this autumn and has now broken 1:10 in her last three wins in a row so expect her to be set for the big sprints next season. The stablemate of the winner Tavy came with a huge finish for second from well back and her future indeed looks very rosy. Passing Shot got over handy the outer from a wide gate and fought on for third but was almost four lengths from the winner at the line. Perfect Fit ran on okay and has more wins in store while they simply went too fast for the likes of Star O’Fraaj and Niki Piki Milo that race close the outer or handy the inner. Signify was sound after sitting back and wide and he lost no admirers with the South Islander far from disgraced once all things are factored in. Harbour Star did okay while Taken The Liberty is a wet tracker. A total forgive run is Mighty Maverick and he has some scope too so can be a black booker. The winner Sheez Flawless can go fast in front and sustain it plus as she showed today she can kick off a hot clip and it is at this point her rivals really feel the burn in the muscles and lungs. Fillies formed the quinella and as well filled the four, five and six holes at the line.
