Too Darn Hot’s Fitzella Makes All in the Princess Margaret

[Wandering Eyes]

On her third appearance at Ascot, Fitzella (Too Darn Hot) set a fierce gallop from the gates and was never headed when winning the G3 Sodexho Princess Margaret Stakes by a length from Staya (Havana Grey).

Bred by Bob and Pauline Scott at Parks Farm Stud, the winner had been beaten only a neck on her debut at the track in May before posting a convincing win at Haydock and then running fourth in the G3 Albany Stakes at the royal meeting.

Fitzella is trained by Hugo Palmer, who outlined his intention to aim her towards the G1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies' Turf at the end of the season.

A daughter of the Exceed And Excel mare Shamandar, she is a half-sister to the Listed-placed Admiral Nelson (Kingman) and was bought as a yearling from the Goffs UK Premier Sale for £170,000 by SackvilleDonald and Manor House Stables, where Palmer trains.
