First Stakes Win for Royally Bred Filly
Tara Madgwick - Friday, 19 October 2012

Blue-blooded Redoute's Choice filly Abidewithme scored a valuable Black Type win on Friday when saluting in the Listed Ray Coupland Stakes at Ashburton  in New Zealand.

A homebred for Sir Patrick Hogan's Cambridge Stud, the Jason Bridgman trained Abidewithme made it two wins in as many starts when taking out the 1400 metre feature by three-quarters of a length.

Abidewithme is a half-sister to stakes-winner Miss Scarlatti and stakes-placed A Fairy's Kiss being one of six winners from Group II winning Zabeel mare Crimson, who comes from the family of Group I VRC Victoria Derby winner Omnicorp.

Abidewithme is the 93rd stakes-winner for Arrowfield Stud's Redoute's Choice (pictured) and is the eighth stakes-winner by the sire bred from a daughter of Zabeel.

The cross gained much popularity following on from the success of champion filly Samantha Miss and has been well tried in recent years with 39 winners from 55 runners giving it a 70% winner to runner ratio.
