Taormina made all the running and held off a late challenge from Dundeel colt Fukubana to win the 1200m dash by a long head taking her career earnings in excess of $100,000.

“Tim Clark has had a great career and we’ve had a great association with him and that was a great example of the types of rides he can produce for us,” said Adrian Bott.

“She’s a nice professional filly that does everything right and he took bad luck out of the equation and she was tough enough to hang on.”

Taormina was a $450,000 Magic Millions purchase.

Taormina was a $450,000 Magic Millions purchase for Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott/Kestrel Thoroughbreds from Newhaven Park and is the third winner from three foals to race from Infra Dig, a metro winning Exceed and Excel mare from the family of Champion 2YO and 3YO Filly English.

Newhaven Park sold a yearling colt by Frosted (USA) from Infra Dig at Magic Millions this year for $100,000 and she is in foal to one of the farm’s resident sires Xtravagant.
