New Stakes Horse for Hellbent

Tara Madgwick - Thursday December 16

Yarraman Park’s exciting young sire Hellbent added a second stakes horse to his tally on Wednesday when promising filly Miss Hellfire finished a brave second on debut in the $200,000 Magic Millions Wyong 2YO Classic (1100m).

Trained by Peter and Paul Snowden, Miss Hellfire had won her only two previous trials and very nearly kept her record perfect on race day.

She raced on the pace for Kerrin McEvoy and tired hard all the way to the line to beat all bar the late closing Soaring Ambition to go down by a neck.

Miss Hellfire as a yearling.


A $60,000 Magic Millions purchase from the Newgate Farm draft for Triple Crown Syndications, Miss Hellfire is a half-sister to ill-fated stakes-winner Xtremetime and US Group I placed Caracaro.

She is the third stakes horse from imported War Front mare Peace Time(USA), a placed daughter of Group II winner Santa Catarina.

Hellbent also had the fifth and sixth place-getters in the race in Hell I Am and Negation with both horses beaten less than two lengths in a competitive finish.

Hellbent has 23 entries for Magic Millions and 30 for Inglis Classic.
