Godolphin Winner for Forum Floozie

Tara Madgwick - Friday June 24

Talented stakes-winning sprinter miler Forum Floozie was never quite as good as her globe-trotting five-time Group I winning half-brother Starcraft, but she was good enough for Darley to add her to their broodmare band in 2005 and she produced a smart winner for them overnight in the UK.

Dubawi

Three year-old Dubawi gelding Parliamentarian was third at his only start last year at Redcar for Charlie Appleby and returned in a 1m1f maiden at Hamilton to win comfortably.

Held up for a run, he accelerated well when required to win by a neck and is tipped to be winning more races.

He is the fourth winner from five foals to race in the Northern Hemisphere for Forum Floozie, whose best offspring is French stakes-winner Lawspeaker, a son of Singspiel.

Forum Floozie is one of six winners from star producer Flying Floozie, whose Group II placed daughter Pin Up is still making an impression as the dam of New Zealand Group II winner Sports Illustrated and the unbeaten Hawkes Racing trained gelding Bullrush.

The four year-old son of O'Reilly has won five from five in and around Sydney and looms as the next stakes-winner from this terrific old family.
