This filly displays class and will be a major threat in upcoming 3YO staying events. The daughter of Iglesia cleared maidens on her home surface back on the penultimate day of October. She then travelled north to Ellerslie to contest a listed 3YO event on December 13. Travelling beautifully beyond midfield, she was eased round the field from the 800m. She loomed up wide on the home and put in a fine sprint to grab the lead only to duck and dive in the final stages with the race in safe keeping. However, she still managed to hold the lead and win narrowly but well.
