Daily Debutants

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday January 1
New Year’s Day racing always delivers some quality horses and all eyes will be on Flemington race one for the debut of a $1million daughter of Japanese sire sensation Deep Impact.

Enood as a yearlingBred by Arrowfield Stud in partnership and sold through their draft at Inglis Easter where she was bought by Sheikh Mohammed bin Khalifa Al Maktoum, Enood is prepared by Tony McEvoy, who is expecting a good showing from the filly.

She pleased connections in a recent jumpout at Terang and is entered for the Golden Slipper and Blue Diamond.

"She’s a lovely elegant filly, ready to go to the races and I think she has a bright future," McEvoy said.

"The jumpout against the older horses was not intended as I thought she’d be against her own age and then I got there and saw they were mixed heats.

"When two-year-old filly can go as well as that against seasoned opposition it confirms to me she is a quality filly.”

Enood is a half-sister to stakes-winner Manhattan Street and is from Charming Estelle, a half-sister to Australian Horse of the Year and Champion Sprinter Lankan Rupee.
