A talented group of rising fillies will battle it out in Saturday’s Group 3 Ethereal Stakes over 2000 metres, with several using the race as a key stepping stone toward the VRC Oaks.
Dominic Sutton’s After Summer will be ridden by Billy Egan, while Ciaron Maher saddles a strong duo in Morisu Ojo and Zouclaire.
Chris Waller’s Enviable, Wendy Kelly’s Classic Gem, and Mark Walker’s pair Crismera and Future Frankie also add depth to the field.
Others chasing black-type success include Matt Laurie’s Grand Omaha, Nick Olive’s Spicy Lu, Emma-Lee and David Browne’s Just Kick, and John McArdle’s Yum — all looking to stamp their staying credentials ahead of the spring’s major fillies’ contests.
