The five-year-old Magnus mare How's The Serenity goes from strength to strength, making it back-to-back Listed stakes wins with a bloodless victory in Saturday's WATC Miss Andretti Stakes (1100m) at Ascot.
Ridden by Holly Watson for Simon Miller, How's The Serenity defeated the 6yo War Chant (USA) mare Express Time by a length and a half, with the 6yo I Am Invincible gelding Long Beach a long neck back in third.
Miller has a fantastic record in the race, winning with Power Princess (2012), Hussy By Choice (2014) and Caipirinha (2018), Valour Road (2020), Flirtini (2021), and Miss Conteki (2022).
Coming off a maiden stakes win in the Listed WATC Summer Scorcher (1000m) at Ascot on New Year's Day, How's The Serenity advances her record to nine wins, three seconds, and three thirds from 21 starts with earnings of $457,260.
The daughter of Magnus was a $40,000 purchase for her trainer from the Scenic Lodge draft at the 2019 Magic Millions Perth Yearling Sale.
Simon Miller said he hopes How's The Serenity can earn a slot in the inaugural $4,000,000 The Quokka on April 15.
Bred by Martin's Park Investments Trust, How's The Serenity is the best of three winners from stakes-placed Sweet Serenity, a half-sister to stakes-winner Private Dancer.
John Chalmers Bloodstock (FBAA)/Erkelens Racing purchased a Highland Reel filly from Sweet Serenity for $40,000 from the Quanah Park Thoroughbreds draft at the 2022 Magic Millions Perth Yearling Sale.
