Qatar Bloodstock Fastnet Filly Salutes

Tara Madgwick - Sunday December 21
Astute agent David Redvers bought a lovely group of fillies for Qatar Bloodstock at the 2013 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale and another of them cast off maiden status with a stylish win at Cranbourne on Saturday evening.

BryonyThree year-old Fastnet Rock filly Bryony was a short priced favourite for the 1300 metre maiden and after racing on the pace fought on well to win by a long neck for the Robert Smerdon stable.

Bryony was a $700,000 Inglis Australian Easter purchase from the Coolmore draft and is a three-quarter sister to Group I winner and $2.2 million earner Triple Honour.

She is the seventh winner from Nassipour (USA) mare Myrrh, whose current yearling, a colt by Fastnet Rock, will be offered at the 2015 NZB Premier Yearling Sale by Curraghmore Stud as Lot 85.

Myrrh produced another colt by Fastnet Rock this spring.
