Tara Madgwick - Wednesday July 30

Celebrity Miss - courtesy Perth RacingPrepared by Grant Williams, as is Silverstream, five year-old More Than Ready (USA) mare Celebrity Miss was in top form with two wins from her past three starts and turned in a career best performance to win the 1200 metre sprint by a length as favourite.

Celebrity Miss has won eight of 17 starts earning nearly $240,000 in prizemoney and becomes the 129th stakes-winner for Vinery Stud's stalwart sire More Than Ready.

A half-sister to Group II WATC Karrakatta Plate winner Confront, Celebrity Miss is one of six winners from the Peters' former star mare Miss Margaret, who won the Group I VRC Chrysler Stakes and SAJC South Australian Oaks.

Miss Margaret was retired from stud duties in 2012, but Mr and Mrs Peters still have a number of her close relations to breed on with including Group I WATC WA Derby winner Dreamaway, who is a three-quarter sister-in-blood to Celebrity Miss.

Dreamaway is due to foal for the first time this spring to Congrats (USA).
