Narrowly beaten on debut at Ballarat back in March, Adament was spelled after that and has come back a stronger filly.

She dashed clear to win the 1100m maiden by two lengths in a dominant display.

A $300,000 Magic Millions purchase from the Yarraman Park draft for Ciaron Maher Bloodstock, Adament is a half-sister to Group placed I Am Swerving and Dogmatic, also to the dam of stakes-winner Diamond Thunder.

Adament is the 14th winner this season for Yarraman Park’s Hellbent, who is leading the second season sires by winners.
