Playing God's September Born Claims Fairetha Stakes

Mark Smith - Saturday November 9

A luckless second at his last start in the Listed Belgravia Stakes, the lightly raced 3-year-old Playing God colt September Born Made it two wins from three starts when opening his stakes account in Saturday's Listed Seacorp - Fairetha Stakes (1400m) at Ascot.

Ridden by Brad Parnham for his father Neville, the short-priced favourite defeated the fast-finishing Exceedance gelding Exceed The Planet by a half-length with the Ocean Park gelding Olympic Park back in third.

Brad Parnham has won four of the last five Fairetha Stakes, and Neville Parnham the last three.

A homebred for the Edwards family, September Born is a brother to the top-class filly  Kay Cee, whose five stakes wins were headed by the 2019 Group 1 WATC Kingston Town Classic.

"He did a big job today from an outside barrier," Neville Parnham said.

"He began sedately and looked likely to be caught out in the cheap seats, but he got a nice trail three deep.

"He still has improvement and hopefully we will see him in a couple of weeks in the Guineas.

"I think he will get the mile on his ear."

September Born is the third winner from five to race for the McFlirt mare

Flirt 'N' Hope a daughter of the Group III WATC AJ Scahill Stakes, Listed Hahn Premium Light Classic, and Listed December Handicap winner  Lizzy Long Legs (Steel Glow).

Not served in 2022, Flirt 'N' Hope foaled a sister to Kay Cee and September Born on September 14.

September Born is the 21st stakes-winner for Darling View Thoroughbreds Playing God.
