Golden Lilac likely to thrive in Etihad Airways Falmouth Stakes (British Champions Series) (Group 1) (Fillies & Mares)
On the card of the Etihad Airways Falmouth Stakes (British Champions Series) (Group 1) (Fillies & Mares), the A. Fabre-trained bay filly, Golden Lilac, looks to be the strongest candidate who is all set to seal first position in the high-profile Class 1
contest that will be held at Newmarket on Friday, July 13.
When the action begins at 3:00 (GMT), the four-year-old momentous sprinter will run against 10 worthy rivals on the soft course of 1 mile.
The brilliant daughter of Galileo out of Grey Lilas possesses an epic track record as she has finished first in six of her total seven starts to date. What a marvellous record!
The Gestut Ammerland-owned maverick sprinter started her career in September 2010. She marvellously won each of her first five races on soft, good to soft and good tracks. She grabbed a third position on August 15.
On May 27, 2012, the Ammerland Verwaltung Gmbh-bred runner nicely notched up top spot in the Prix D’Ispahan (Group 1) (4YO+) (Turf) over 1 mile and 1 furlong at Longchamp----that was her last outing.
These splendid feats are clear evidences of the fantastic filly’s calibre and class. So it is expected that Golden Lilac will be able to carry the day at Newmarket convincingly, but she is likely to face some resistance from Giofra.
Giofra started her career in September 2011. In the month of October, the trainee of A. De Royer-Dupre elegantly grabbed a grand victory each at Compiegne and Longchamp. The bay filly moved on to win Prix D’Harcourt (Group 2) (4YO+) (Turf) over 1 mile and
2 furlongs again at Longchamp on April 8, 2012.
Thus, this fabulous hat-trick boosted up the filly’s morale to a great extent, and she stepped forward to finish as a runner-up in her last outing at Longchamp.
In this situation, the daughter of Dansili out of Gracefully will have a tough tug of war against Golden Lilac. The event will be packed with thrill and excitement. Let us see who of the duo manages to win. Good luck to both the enthusiastic contestants
who are all ready for a big showdown.
