FoxwedgePrepared by astute trainer Robert Heathcote, progressive four year-old mare Stella Victoria has been flying in her current preparation winning three of four starts since resuming from a spell in late August.

She has steadily worked through the grades and was well fancied in the Listed BRC Legacy Fillies and Mares Classic running out an easy winner of the 1200 metre sprint.

Foxwedge has five entries for the 2019 Magic Millions and 19 for Inglis Classic.
