She’s a long way from being the best Godolphin horse trained by James Cummings, but one day this Goulburn winner will be a valuable addition to the Darley broodmare band as a sibling to three Group winners now all at stud.

Exceed and ExcelThree year-old Exceed and Excel filly Efficiently was well fancied in the 1200 metre maiden and broke the ice with an easy length and a quarter win at her third start.

Efficiently is a sinling to Group I winner Skilled and Group II winners Sidestep and Ambidexter being the seventh winner from seven foals to race from terrific producer Dextrous a Group II winning daughter of Quest for Fame (GB).

Tracing in tail female line to Ammo Girl, the dam of champion mare Emancipation, Dextrous has a yearling filly by Hallowed Crown and produced a filly by Kermadec this year.
