Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 12, 2021 Journalists Share Posted April 12, 2021 Trainers Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young expect promising New Zealand-bred filly Impecunious (NZ) (Sacred Falls) to enjoy the step up to 2400m in Saturday’s Gr.1 Australian Oaks. The three-year-old daughter of Sacred Falls ran home strongly behind Hungry Heart in the Gr.1 Vinery (2000m) last start, and the step up in distance again is set to suit the exciting filly. “She’s come through the run really well, she had a nice week, just ticking over,” Young told Racing.com. “She won’t gallop again until Tuesday. “She’s a Sacred Falls, so she should get the trip. She’s always hit the line well. We didn’t want to change her pattern around (last start). “We are building to the 2400m and we wanted to ride her how she was used to. I think she’s better ridden that little bit conservative early and then she has a really good turn of foot late. “If we get a bit of rain next week, even better. Hungry Heart is going to be hard to beat but I don’t think she likes it wet. “If we get rain a little bit on Saturday, we will be laughing.” Impecunious was purchased out of Waikato Stud’s 2019 New Zealand Bloodstock Book 1 Yearling Sale draft for $140,000 by trainer Michael Pitman, for whom she had two starts in New Zealand, resulting in a win and a placing.
