Zoukerette Salutes for Iskander Racing

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday May 24

A half-sister to stakes-winner Zoukerino and Group III placed Spend, well related I Am Invincible filly Zoukerette had a valuable race experience and fitness edge over her rivals in the 1100m fillies maiden at Canterbury on Wednesday.

Well prepared by Ciaron Maher and David Eustace, Zoukerette stalked the leader Power Ballard and when she started to fade, Zoukerette surged to the lead for Jason Collett opening her account to win by three-quarters of a length over fast finishing The Autumn Sun filly Tutta La Vita.
