Niewand jumped fast and tracked the lead for Dean Holland and powered to the line to win the 1000 metre maiden by more than three lengths in a dominant display as favourite.

Niewand is the 11^th winner from 32 starters for Shooting to Win, whose best offspring are Group I placed Kubrick and stakes-placed Shotmaker.

The Group I winning son of Northern Meteor stands at Darley NSW this spring at a fee of $22,000.
