Impressive Rubick Winner for Prime

Tara Madgwick - Thursday June 6
The colours of astute syndicator Joe O'Neill's Prime Thoroughbreds were carried to victory at Seymour on Thursday in impressive style by talented Rubick filly Rubisaki.

RubickThe Patrick Payne trained filly was beaten narrowly on debut at Warrnambool last month but quickly made amends with a stylish two and a quarter length win in the 1200 metre maiden as a well backed favourite.

An $85,000 Inglis Classic purchase for Prime Thoroughbreds from the Edinburgh Park draft, Rubisaki is the fourth winner from four foals to race from Senro Kisakim, a Sydney metropolitan winner by Danehill Dancer (IRE).

Rubisaki is the 12th first crop winner for Rubick, whose offspring are headed by Group II winner Yes Yes Yes as well as stakes horses Krameric, Biscara and Alburq.

Rubick stands at Coolmore at a fee of $38,500 this spring
