No turning back … after capturing her first stakes victory (at start #11) in the Group 3 Vase two weeks ago, favourite Surfin’ Bird has repeated the dose in the Group 2 Crystal Mile over 1600m at @FlemingtonVRC.
Trained by @GaiWaterhouse1 & Adrian Bott, the 5YO mare is by @ArrowfieldStud’s The Autumn Sun from a half sister to Golden Slipper winner & sire, Farnan and Listed winner & sire, Sandbar.
Originally sold by @Milburn_Creek to Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott / @bruceaslade at the 2023 Gold Coast Magic Millions Yearling Sale, Surfin’ Bird was subsequently knocked down to Waterhouse/Bott/Kestrel and @FirstLight_FLR at the 2023 Strawberry Hill Dispersal.
