Talented Hellbent filly Kristilli gave her owners a hell of a ride winning the $1million Group II ATC Percy Sykes Stakes and selling for $925,000 as a broodmare prospect and her full sister opened her account at Tamworth on Thursday.
Trained by Annabel Neasham & Rob Archibald as was her sister, Anarita also carries the same colours as her ownership group is put together by well known racing presenter Lizzie Jelfs and while she’s probably not going to scale the heights her sister did, she is now a winner.
Anarita ran well in metro maidens at her past two starts and broke through to score by half a length in the 1200m maiden as favoruite.
A $170,000 Inglis Classic purchase from Yarraman Pakr for Annabel Neasham Racing / L Jelfs, Anarita is the third winner from three foals to race from Sognani, a winning Magic Albert mare from the family of Group I winner Lady Laguna.
Sognani had a filly by Hellbent last spring and was then covered by I Am Invincible.
