First Winner for Dubious

Mark Smith - Friday December 22

Kitchwin Hills recruit Dubious is off the mark, with the Tom Bourke-trained Dubious Authority making a winning career debut over 1050m at Mackay on Friday.

Justin Stanley made his intentions clear when taking up the running from the outside barrier.

Dubious Authority passed-in short of her $50,000 reserve at Magic Millions March Yearling Sale

Kept up to her work, Dubious Authority safely held the Power (GB) filly Rocket Power by three-quarters of a length, with the Dubious gelding Teleki one and a quarter lengths back in third.

Passed in short of her $50,000 reserve when offered by Lucas Bloodstock at the 2023 Magic Millions Gold Coast March Yearling Sale, Dubious Authority is the second winner from as many to race for the Authorized (IRE) mare Seltzer.

A winner at Kembla Grange for Godolphin, Seltzer was sold on Inglis Digital in 2021 for $8,000.

Her dam Soda Water (Encosta de Lago)  is a half-sister to Group III winner and Group 1-placed Intelligent Star, Group III winner Blaze The Turf,  and the unraced Aerate's Pick, dam of triple Group 1 winner Ortensia.

The Group II BRC Champagne Classic and Group III ATC Breeders' Plate winner, Dubious, stood three seasons at Aquis.

The son of Not A Single Doubt covered 417 mares in his first three seasons before moving to Kitchwin Hills this season at a fee of $15,400.
