Moonee Valley 2YO Sale Mail

Tara Madgwick - Friday December 16

The two year old-fillies race tonight at Moonee Valley holds some interest with runners for first season sires Harry Angel (IRE) and Stratosphere.

Harry Angel filly Angelique has the score on the board with a soft win at Morphettville last Saturday after making her debut in the Group III VRC Ottawa Stakes during the spring.

Pariah filly Lady in Pink will have a big group of very happy owners if she runs well having been bought by the Malua Bloodstock - Pink Race Series Horse Syndicate for $160,000 at Inglis Classic from the Arrowfield draft.

The Leon and Troy Corstens trained filly is drawn well with Craig Williams to ride and is bred to be up and going as her stakes-placed dam Iron Lace is from a full sister to Group I winner Excellerator, an outstanding two year-old that won the Magic Millions 2YO Classic and was second in the Golden Slipper.

The race jumps at 6.15pm.
