Goodwood G3 Winner for Cable Bay

Tara Madgwick - Thursday August 1
Exciting young sire Cable Bay (IRE) is not certain to shuttle to Woodside Park Stud in Victoria this spring, but he's going great guns in Europe and featured overnight when his quality filly Liberty Beach won the Group III Molecombe Stakes at Goodwood.

Read about Cable Bay here and why he may not be coming to Australia this spring.

A last start stakes-winner at Sandown, the John Quinn trained filly overcame a chequered passage to surge clear at the finish and win the five furlong sprint by a length.

"Liberty Beach did not get the best passage through the race as a few horses got in her way, but she showed once again a very special acceleration," said Joh Quinn.

"She nearly ran her race to get to avoid all the trouble, but once Jason pulled her out and found the gap, off she went and he couldn't pull her up. She is in the Lowther (Group II) and the Prix Morny (Group I) so we shall see - I like the Morny! She is a very high-class filly."

Liberty Beach has the overall impressive record of four wins and an unlucky fourth at Royal Ascot from just five starts.

Retained to race by her breeder Phillip Wilkins, Liberty Beach is the first winner from Flirtinaskirt, a half-sister by Avonbridge to Group III winner La Rioja.

A brilliant Group II winning sprinter by Invincible Spirit, Cable Bay has sired 13 winners from 36 first crop starters so far in the Northern Hemisphere.
