The Listed SAJC Without Fear Stakes (1050m) at Morphettville on Saturday had a short priced favourite in Tagaloa filly Meisho, but she proved no match for the Amy and Ash Yargi trained filly Petit Artiste, a bargain basement $15,000 Inglis Premier purchase for her trainers.
A brilliant rails hugging ride by apprentice Lily Sutherland combined with the never-say-die attitude of progressive stayer Mehzebeen proved the key to the finish of a thrilling running of the Listed Valley D’Vine Restaurant Hawke’s Bay Cup (2200m) at Trentham.
