Highview Stud stallion Wrote (High Chaparral) recorded his first New Zealand win as a sire when And We Danced landed the Yara Fertiliser Maiden (1100m) on debut at Hastings yesterday.
The Bill Thurlow-trained 2YO got up by a short head over Express Desire (Shamexpress).
It was fantastic. I didn’t think she was going to get up, but it was a big effort,” said Highview Stud principal Brent Gillovic.
They are not really 2YO. Bill (Thurlow) said this filly really wasn’t a two-yearold and she will only get better.
She showed a real will to get up and win, and had a great turn of foot in the end.” Wrote, who previously stood at Northwest Farm in Florida, has been well supported by New Zealand breeders and will once again stand at Highview Stud this coming season for a fee of $5,000.
