Valuable stakes win for Arinosa

3 minute read

The Chris Waller trained mare Arinosa has made an ideal start to her autumn winning the Listed Wenona Girl Quality (1200m) at Warwick Farm.

The race panned out ideally for the grey mare Arinosa as she settled back off a solid tempo set by front-runners Mickelberg, Embark and Cathay Lady.

Embark and Cathay Lady took over heading for home with the well-supported favourite Choice Words getting clear and shaping up as the one but when Arinosa balanced up and hit top stride she powered over the top of them winning with a bit to spare on the line.

Choice Words fought on for second with Ladys Angel taking third from Cathay Lady.

The win was a first stakes-success for the daughter of Dash For Cash and the stable is now set to raise the bar with her going into the autumn.

“I wasn't expecting her to win,” said trainer Chris Waller.

“There was a restricted race that we were looking at with her but now we'll be looking a bit higher than that.

“We'll slowly work towards the Randwick Carnival where I think there is a couple of races for her.”

The highly consistent grey mare Arinosa has now not finished further back than second in her last eight starts. She raced at the tail of the 11-horse field early, before improving wide out from the 600m. She went to the extreme outside on turning for home and came with a late run to win by a length, going away at the post. The favourite Choice Words ($3.50) had a good run about sixth between runners, pushed into the clear at the home turn and challenged at the 200m. But she found the late-losing winner too good, holding on for a sound second. Ladys Angel was friendless in the betting ring and started at $11 after being very prominent in pre-post markets. She raced behind the leader Mickelburg, got through to take a narrow lead at the 100m and fight on for third after having every chance. Cathay Lady, a winner of her past four starts, raced on the pace being close up three wide to the turn before challenging at the 200m, then holding on for fourth. *ANZ
