Vivacious Wins First 2Yo Race Of Season
WELL-BRED filly Vivacious won the first two-year-old race of the season at Tattersall's Park in Hobart yesterday to signal her arrival as a potential star.
Vivacious (West Quest-Entally) is a full sister to former top class sprinting mare Reunification and talented middle distance performer National Trust.
The filly began well and raced outside of the leader Clan McLeod (Savoire Vivre-Starred) and they matched motors to the home turn with Destiana (Invincible Spirit-Begum) closing in after trailing the pair.
Vivacious's rider Brendon McCoull became anxious on the home turn but the filly responded and drew alongside Clan McLeod and eventually gained the upper hand and went on to score by a half-length from Clan McLeod with Destiana over two lengths astern.
Trainer Barry Campbell was calm and reserved after the race but admitted the filly was a potential star from the day she first took to the bridle.
"The dam (Entally) is a marvel isn't she? That's her third foal and they've all won and showed good stuff from day one," Campbell said.
"It takes a good one to travel over four hours in a float to the races and win at first look at a track and she's done it without having to be fully extended."
"That's as good a win as you'll see by a two-year-old given the circumstances," he said.
McCoull was equally as impressed.
"She is such a natural. She had a bit of a stargaze at a few things today but in the end she did what she had to do to win. It was impressive," McCoull said.
The filly is owned and raced by Richard and Miranda Foster and John and Judy Kingston in partnership with the trainer's wife Anne Campbell.
"We had a lot of success with this filly's sister Reunification and now that she's been sold and retired to stud this filly is a very nice replacement," Mrs Foster said.
Campbell said Vivacious is unlikely to contest the Alexandra Plate in Hobart in a fortnight and is more likely to be kept for the Alfa Bowl in Launceston on November 22.
