Hadaad (USA)

Narrowly missing out last start in the Group 3 MRC How Now Stakes (1200m), the Richard and Chantelle Jolly trained Smart Missile mare Aviatress dropped back to the 1100m of the $175,000 Listed MRC Doveton Stakes on Saturday, charging late to snatch victory.

As the fastest ever 2yo over the Randwick 1000m when winning the Inglis Nursey at his only ever start, Fastnet Rock’s son Acrobat has proven extremely popular at stud, and on Sunday at the Sunshine Coast, the Paul Shailer trained Acrodance became his first winner.
