One to Watch -Te Rapa

Tara Madgwick - Sunday November 26
The memory of the great champion So You Think was recalled at Te Rapa on Sunday when a three-quarter sister-in-blood to the ten time Group I winner saluted on debut.

High ChaparralFive year-old High Chaparral (IRE) mare Capucine won over 1200 metres at the first time of asking for the Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman stable.

She scored by a neck with more than three lengths back to the third horse.

Retained to race by her breeders, Capucine is the second winner for La Souvenir, a half-sister by Nuclear Freeze (USA) to So You Think from Group II winner Triassic.

The ill-fated High Chaparral has had a sensational start to the season reeling off seven stakes-winners headed by Melbourne Cup winner Rekindling and Victoria Derby winner Ace High.
