Tara Madgwick - Tuesday February 25

Promising debut winner at Kembla on Tuesday in the Emirates Park colours is Justify (USA) filly Amreekiyah, who has a half-sister by Home Affairs to be offered at Inglis Easter.

Trained by Peter Snowden and ridden by Braith Nock, Amreekiyah has been handled patiently and was unsighted at two, but showed nice ability in two trials this year.

She was allowed to find her feet in the run and let down with a surging finish to power home and win the 1300m maiden by a neck doing her best work on the line.

A $420,000 Inglis Easter purchase for Emirates Park / Snowden Racing / William Johnson Bloodstock from the Coolmore draft, Amreekiyah runs for Emirates Park and various Snowden stable clients.

She is a half-sister to Group II winner Yaletown and is the second winner from multiple Group placed stakes-winner Marianne (NZ), a Darci Brahma mare from the family of recent stakes-winner Prairie Flower.

Coolmore sold a full sister to Amreekiyah at Inglis Easter last year for $800,000 and will offer her yearling half-sister by Home Affairs as agent for Morning Rise Stud this year as Lot 50.

Marianne produced another filly by Justify last spring and was then covered by Wootton Bassett (GB).
