One to Watch – Mildura

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday September 25
The powerful Darren Weir stable spreads it runners right around Victoria and produced an impressive three year-old Snitzel winner on Tuesday at Mildura.

Interram as a yearlingA full sister to Group III placed filly Spoils, Interram took plenty of benefit from her debut third at Kilmore earlier this month and was sent to the post a short priced favourite for the 1200 metre maiden.

She quickly found the front and led all the way for Dean Yendall, slipping away down the running to win by four lengths under her own steam.

A $420,000 Magic Millions purchase from the Edinburgh Park draft for Little Kwok Hing Hung/Bahen Bloodstock, Interram runs for Orbis Bloodstock.

Bred by Ian Smith, Interram is the second winner from stakes-placed General Nediym mare Fortune of War, a daughter of exceptional producer Pretty Penny.

A Group III placed daughter of Encosta de Lago, Pretty Penny has had six named foals and all are stakes performers headed by $1.2 million earner and Group II winner Sertorius and current Group III winner Dollar for Dollar, who was a close second in the Group I Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes last Saturday.

Given the ability of her family it will be no surprise to see Interram given a shot at Black Type races during the spring.
