Group 1 success for Red River Hanover juvenile
The Bill Crosby trained Lady White Water overcame a horrible second row draw to score a dominant win in the $100,000 Group 1 Garrards Nursery Pace 2YO Fillies Final (2,138m) at Albion Park on Saturday evening.
After settling towards the back of the field from her second row draw Lady White Water was set alight with 1,200m to go, going up to sit parked outside the favourite Victree Bonita before receiving cover with a lap to go. Asked to sprint again with 400m to go Lady White Water quickly reeled in the leaders to take a 2.5m win over Dont Break My Arc and Victree Bonita.
It was the talented Red River Hanover filly's second win from just three starts, taking her earnings to just over $70,000.
Bred by Errol Willey, Lady White Water is out of the former top mare Stay Bright (by Fake Left) who counted the QBred Breeders Classic 3YO Fillies Final, 4YO QBred Triad Mares Final and QBred 4YO Mares Classic amongst her 14 victories.
