Caipirinha wins 2016 Tabtouch - Placid Ark Stakes Listed $100,000 at Ascot (WA) 3yo, 1200m.
Smart filly Caipirinha scored her second win at stakes level in eight starts to date, with an impressive effort here. She began well from her good barrier (2), went to the front and then travelled along at quite a good tempo (first 600m 35.32). She grabbed a good break at the 200m and then went on to score a very good win.
Where's Wally settled in fifth place, improved to third coming to the home turn and fought on well in the straight for a good second in a promising first up effort.
Stored Energy settled in seventh place, improved nicely, between runners, nearing the home turn, went to fifth at the 300m and kept running on well for a good third.
