Widden Stud’s reigning champion sire Zoustar featured overnight with a new stakes-winner when progressive four year-old mare Sky Safari landed the Listed Fleur de Lys Stakes (1m) at Lingfield.
Trained by James Fanshawe, she was shooting for a third consecutive win and scored by half a length for Daniel Muscutt taking her overall record to six wins from nine starts.
"She wants to win," said James Fanshawe.
"She's always been a big filly but now she's filled her frame so hopefully Mrs Slack [owner] will keep her in training. She's pretty useful. She hasn't had that many races over the summer and she might get the trip in the Winter Oaks, it's a really good prize and she wasn't stopping today, and there's Newcastle as well."
Sky Safari is the best of three winners from winning Galileo mare Moonlight Sonata, a half-sister to Group II winning stayer Western Hymn.
She is 73rd stakes-winner for Zoustar, who has 34 entries for Magic Millions 2026.
