Winning the Group 2 MVRC Vase and finishing second in the Group 1 VRC Derby at 3, the Ben, Will and JD Hayes trained son of Fiorente (IRE) had almost 12 months away from the track before resuming with an impressive Moonee Valley win recently, backing it up on Oaks Day at Flemington to win the Listed VRC Chester Manifold Stakes (1600m).

The $300,000 Group III VRC Red Roses Stakes (1100m) at Flemington on Oaks Day was packed with interest as some very promising three year-old fillies lined up and it was progressive Blue Point (IRE) filly Point Barrow that arrived late to claim a valuable Black Type victory.
