Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 22, 2020 Journalists Share Posted December 22, 2020 A 1400m test awaits New Zealand-bred filly Impecunious (NZ) (Sacred Falls) in the new year ahead of some bigger targets, including the Gr.1 Australian Oaks (2400m) at Randwick in April. “She’ll go to a 1400m race on one of those days (January 1 at Flemington or January 2 at Caulfield) and then have 10 days in the paddock with a view to getting her to the ATC Oaks,” Trent Busuttin, who trains in partnership with Natalie Young, told Racing.com. “She’s out of a Zabeel mare and that (Oaks) is what she was bought for. “She’s got plenty of class and that allows her to get away with these shorter-trip races but she’s going to be beautifully placed over a mile-plus.” Impecunious was previously trained in New Zealand by Michael and Mathew Pitman, for whom she won and placed in her two starts in her homeland. She was subsequently sold to Australian interests and rewarded her new connections with a first-up Australian victory over 1200m at Caulfield. “It was a good effort because they were ripping along in front and carving out some good sectionals but once she peeled out on the turn, she was always going to pick them up and she did so with her ears pricked,” he said.
