Third and second at her only two previous runs, the Phillip stokes trained filly was ready to break the ice and surged home to win the 1200 metre sprint by a long neck.

A $150,000 Inglis Premier purchase for her trainer from the Glentree Thoroughbreds draft, Éclair Breeze is the second winner from stakes-winning Exceed and Excel mare Armed for Action, who was also placed in the Group I MRC Blue Diamond Stakes.

Éclair Breeze is the sixth winner for Shooting to Win and four of those winners are metropolitan winners.

The Group I winning son of Northern Meteor stands at Darley this spring at a fee of $22,000.
