Debut Winner for Charm Spirit

Tara Madgwick - Saturday June 30

Windsor Park shuttler Charm Spirit (IRE) added a sixth winner to his tally with a debut victory in the UK at Newmarket for two year-old filly Aquarius overnight.

Trained by Michael Appleby, she scored over six furlongs by a length and a half giving the impression more wins are in store.

Aquarius is the second winner from Peibtre Celebre mare Puzzled, a daughter of Group I winner Classic Park.

A triple Group I winning son of Invincible Spirit, Charm Spirit has made a positive impression at Australasian yearling sales this year with his first Southern Hemisphere bred yearlings.

Charm Spirit had 30 yearlings average $112,000 at Karaka Book 1 and also had four yearlings average $2616,250 at the Magic Millions Yearling Sale on the Gold Coast.

His yearlings sold for up to $400,000 with his top seller a filly from Lady Kipling sold by Windsor Park at Karaka and bought by Ciaron Maher / Waterford Bloodstock.

Charm Spirit stands at a fee of $18,000
