Soliloquy Suits Whoshe

Storm Creek filly Whoshe heads up a strong field in the Soliloquy Stakes, second leg of the NZ Bloodstock Filly of the Year series, at Ellerslie on Saturday.

Whoshe beat the colts at her last start in the Wanganui Stakes and is well placed under the set weights against her own sex.

Whoshe (Storm Creek - Lesley Coup by Prized) is trained by Richard Otto and Mark Brooks and won the Great Northern Foal Stakes at Ellerslie in May.

Stephen McKee has two fillies opposing Whoshe but both his runners Society Lady (O'Reilly) and Centre Point (Elusive City) have drawn wide barriers.

Society Lady ran fourth to Antonio Lombardo in the Listed Challenge Stakes and maiden filly Centre Point was impressive when second to Uwillbeglorious at Ruakaka at her last start.

The Graham Richardson trained Miss Upstart (Snippetson) won the Murdoch Newell Stakes last season and had no luck first-up at Wanganui earlier this month.

River Nymph (Captain Rio) and Miss Pelear (Mr. Nancho) were third and fourth respectively in the same Wanganui race. Both are lightly raced and won their maidens two starts back as juveniles.

Faraway Eyes (Ustinov) comes into the race after winning her maiden at Ruakaka for trainer Michael Lawlor. She beat Perfect Katch (Perfectly Ready) by two lengths.

Andrew Scott will be represented by Ready Steady (Perfectly Ready) who won the Countdown to the Karaka Million last December beating the classy Dowager Queen.
