One to Watch – Coffs Harbour

Tara Madgwick - Friday June 21
So You Think’s winning run extended to Coffs Harbour on Friday with an impressive debut juvenile winner from the powerful Kris Lees stable.

Siesta Key as a yearlingTalented filly Siesta Key was a short priced favourite and got the cash in the 1005 metre maiden by the best part of a length giving a great thrill to her big group of owners put together by Australian Bloodstock.

A modest $70,000 Magic Millions purchase for Australian Bloodstock from the Coolmore draft, Siesta Key is the ninth winner from good producer Sarasota, a full sister to champion sire Fastnet Rock.

Sarasota has a weanling filly by So You Think and is in foal to Churchill (IRE).

With over 100 winners this season and 50% seasonal winners to runners, So You Think has really hit his stride and is great value this spring at Coolmore at $38,500.
