One to Watch – Ascot

Amelia's La Bout as a yearling

The Simon Miller trained Amelia’s La Bout was sent out a hot favourite when making her debut and got the job done in style when cruising clear to win over 1200 metres by a length and a half.

A $280,000 Inglis Easter Session II purchase for Amelia Park Racing and Breeding from the Willow Park draft, Amelia’s La Bout is the fourth winner from Dane With Zeel, an unraced sister To Group II winner and $1million earner Natural Blitz.

Amelia’s La Bout is the eighth two year-old winner this season for Hinchinbrook, who is second to only Spirit of Boom for two year-old winners.
