One to Watch – Warwick Farm

Tara Madgwick - Monday October 2
Better wins are ahead for this Hinchinbrook filly who saluted at Warwick Farm on Monday for the powerful Chris Waller stable.

Improvise as a yearlingThird and fourth at her only two previous starts in town, Improvise arrived with a late rush under a well timed ride from Hugh Bowman to score a narrow but decisive win in the 1300 metre maiden.

"All her runs this prep have been good and although she's still learning her craft, she's a talented filly," said Chris Waller.

"I think a mile night suit her better when she can show her turn of foot."

Hugh Bowman also concurred that a slightly longer journey would favour Improvise as she gains strength with maturity.

A $200,000 Magic Millions purchase from the Yarraman Park draft for Chris Waller Racing, Improvise is a half-sister to stakes-placed Princeton Miss from Group III placed O'Reilly mare Karalee, a daughter of Desert Sun (GB) Group II winner Moralee.

She is another promising winner for Snitzel's half-brother Hinchinbrook, who is covering a full book at Yarraman Park this spring at a fee of $44,000.
