Weekend Stakes Double for Pride of Dubai

Tara Madgwick - Monday March 13

It’s been a good weekend for Pride of Dubai with a Group winner at Flemington on Saturday in Sirileo Miss, while Pride of Jenni ran out of her skin for second in the Group I ATC Coolmore Classic  and then on Sunday he posted a new stakes-winner in WA when She’s Fit landed the $125,000 Listed WATC Natasha Stakes (2200m).

Trained by Dan Morton and ridden by Chris Parnham, She’s Fit improved off a last start third in the Listed WATC Ascot 1000 Guineas to score a dominant two and a half length win.

It was the first win in five starts for the promising filly, who has won over $111,000 in prizemoney.

A $50,000 Magic Millions Perth purchase for her trainer from the Amelia Park Racing & Breeding draft, She’s Fit is the first winner for blue-blood High Chaparral (IRE) mare Harpoon, a half-sister to triple Group I winning filly Special Harmony, the dam of stakes-winner Little Surfer Girl, who is in turn the dam of current Group I winning $3.1million earner Fangirl.

She’s Fit is the 18th stakes-winner for Pride of Dubai,  who has 17 entries for the Magic Millions Adelaide Yearling Sale.
