Two for Two for Exceedance

Mark Smith - Thursday December 7

With his exciting daughter, Jupiter Hills, set to debut in Saturday’s $500,000 Inglis Nursery at Randwick, Vinery Stud’s Exceedance went two for two in Australia when Simply Tina made a winning debut at Cairns.

John Manzelmann saddled all five runners in the 950m contest. Ridden by Jackson Murphy, Simply Tina led at every call to defeat the Power (GB) filly Rocket Power by half a length, with the Heroic Valour filly Mishani Sunset three-quarters of a length back in third.
