Valuable Black Type for Mrs Onassis
Tara Madgwick - Saturday, 18 August 2012

Speedy General Nediym mare Mrs Onassis scored a valuable Black Type victory for prolific owner/breeder Gerry Harvey in the Listed ATC Starlight Stakes at Rosehill on Saturday.

A progressive mare, who worked stylishly through the grades last preparation for Gerald Ryan, Mrs Onassis was resuming from a spell and looked primed for a good return following a recent barrier trial win.

She was always travelling sweetly up on the pace for Glyn Schofield and drew clear to win the 1100 metre sprint by more than a length, her overall record now six wins from 13 starts with prizemoney of $159,530.

A homebred for Baramul Stud, Mrs Onassis is a half-sister to Group III winners Miss Judgement and Fifth Avenue Lady and is one of five winners from the Unbridled's Song (USA) mare Miss Jakeo, a daughter of dual Group I winner Lady Jakeo.

Miss Jakeo has a yearling filly by Fastnet Rock and is due to foal to More Than Ready (USA) this spring.

Mrs Onassis is the 42nd stakes-winner for former Widden Stud stalwart General Nediym (pictured), who died in 2009.
