Calendar Girl Swoops For Valuable Doncaster Prize

[Wandering Eyes]

Due to the structure of Doncaster's Weatherbys Scientific £300,000 2-Y-O Stakes on Thursday, Advertise's Calendar Girl was “chucked in” as they say in Britain and duly scooped the big 6 1/2-furlong pot for her Kennet Valley Syndicate. Carrying 8-3 due to her sire's Sales median, the Owen Burrows-trained 45,000gns Tattersalls October Book 2 purchase who had won at Newbury and been second at Epsom over seven was produced late by Saffie Osborne to overwhelm the Harry's Half Million winner Song Of The Clyde (Sergei Prokofiev) in the closing stages and prevail by half a length.

“Dropping back a half-furlong wasn't ideal, but they went quick and her ability got her through,” Burrows said of the winner, whose yearling three-parts brother also goes to the October Book 2 Sale as lot 1090. “She had 8-3 as well and that helped. She's a big girl and she wants a mile, Jim [Crowley] really liked her first time and thought she was a Stakes filly, but she's had a hard race there so we'll see.”
