Tara Madgwick - Saturday February 15

So You Think had an interesting winner at Canterbury on Friday night with a progressive filly that kept her unbeaten record intact at a perfect three for three to the great delight of the Race with Lizzie owners.

Prepared by Annabel Neasham and Rob Archbald, Atelier has been quietly learning her craft at the country meetings winning a maiden on debut at Orange on December 30 and then a Benchmark 58 event at Goulburn over 1600m on January 28.

She came to town with Jason Collett to ride in a Benchmark 64 event over 1550m and kept the winning run going when forging clear to win by three-quarters of a length and has now won $86,850.

Atelier was a $200,000 Magic Millions purchase.

Atelier was a $200,000 Magic Millions purchase from Rosari Farm for Annabel Neasham Racing Pty Ltd/Lizzie Jelfs and is the third winner from three to race from Seam Ripper, a half-sister by Tale of the Cat (USA) to stakes-winner Sugar Boom and to the dam of stakes-winner Perspiration.

It’s a fast female family tracing back to brilliant filly Mother Duck, so it’s no surprise to see Atelier showing plenty of potential.

Atelier is one of 102 winners this season for So You Think, who has big representation at upcoming sales with 15 for Inglis Premier and 33 for Inglis Easter.
