Frosty Girl impressive on debut

Breednet - Wednesday June 4

The Chris Waller-trained Frosty Girl made the perfect start to her career when coming from last to land the Asahi Super Dry Plate (1300m) on debut at Warwick Farm on Wednesday.

The three-year-old daughter of Super Seth sports the colours of prominent Kiwi owner Glenn Ritchie and has been patiently handled by Waller, trialing on six occasions before making her raceday debut.

Taken back to the rear of the field by James McDonald from a wide gate, Frosty Girl looped the field to score by just over a length and a half from Cinsault and Pierro’s Girl.

“It was a good win,” Waller said.  “She is still learning as you can see. We intended to be a little bit closer to the pace, but she was a bit slow away.

“James didn’t panic. He got her into a good rhythm and got her out to the right part of the track and finished off without any interruptions, so it was good.

“Like most New Zealand-bred horses, if you look after them, they will look after you.

“Super Seth from Waikato Stud is doing a fantastic job, so it’s good to see New Zealand with another really promising stallion on the way.

“We will have to pay a bit more for them, but we will be buying a lot more of them.”

Winning jockey James McDonald was also pleased with the performance.

“She’s shown really good promise, so it’s nice to get her kick-started and produce something like that,” he said.

Bred by Waikato Stud and Gary Wallace, Frosty Girl is out of the O’Reilly mare Oh So Chilled, a half-sister to the Listed winner Savacool.

The filly was purchased by Chris Waller Racing and Mulcaster Bloodstock for $150,000 as a yearling at Karaka Book 1 from the Waikato Stud draft.

With his eldest progeny three-year-olds, Super Seth has sired three Group One winners and six stakes winners to date, with Frosty Girl one of 41 winners by the young Waikato Stud stallion. – NZ Racing Desk
