Speedy Dissident filly Yitai Synergy relished a positive ride from James McDonald. surging forward from her outside gate to lead all the way and win at Warwick Farm on Wednesday.
The Peter and Paul Snowden trained filly enjoyed being allowed to run and held off the late challenge of favourite Private Thoughts to win the 1000 metre dash by a short neck in a brisk 57.11 seconds.
A $260,000 Magic Millions purchase for Snowden Racing from the Newgate Farm draft, Yitai Synergy was a successful pinhook having been sourced by Prima Park from the Magic Millions National Weanling Sale draft of Caithness Breeding for $135,000.
