Trained by Clinton McDonald, the two-year-old secured victories in the Blue Diamond Preview and the Blue Diamond Prelude. Attempting to achieve a feat not accomplished by a filly since Midnight Fever in 1987, Hayasugi faces a significant challeng The last colt to win the treble was Sepoy in 2011, following in the footsteps of Bel Esprit in 2002 and Rancher 20 years prior. With jockey Jamie Kah aboard, Hayasugi ($8.50) clinched victory by a narrow margin, defeating South Australian contender Kuroyanagi ($5.50) and Matisse ($17.00) in third place. 2023: Exploring proves too hard to run down Craig Williams and James Cummings combined to give Godolphin both of the Blue Diamond Preludes, with Exploring causing a minor boilover in the Fillies division. With the aid of a great front running ride from Williams, the two-year-old daughter of Brazen Beau ran out a strong 1100m, recording her second win from three career starts after finishing fourth in the Blue Diamond Preview last start. Jumping at $14 with online bookmakers, the Godolphin-trained runner prove too strong for her rivals, leading from start to finish to stake her claim as one of the favoured runners for the Blue Diamond Stakes in two weeks’ time. The race-favourite and massive market mover in the Blue Diamond Stakes futures market, Charm Stone, was very disappointing with the Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr-trained filly only managing a sixth-place finish. 2022: Revolutionary Miss launches late Revolutionary Miss delivered a stunning performance to claim victory in the Blue Diamond Prelude (Fillies) (1100m) at Caulfield. Settling midfield early, the talented filly produced a powerful finishing burst in the straight to overtake her rivals and secure the win. Her impressive turn of foot highlighted her potential as a leading contender for the upcoming Blue Diamond Stakes. The win added to the growing reputation of the Peter and Paul Snowden-trained filly.
