Champagne Stakes Group 3....Loving It.
Sep 25, 2013
The stable will enjoy a welcome return to the spring carnival spotlight on
Friday night when exciting filly I Love It runs in the Group 3 TBV
Champagne Stakes at Moonee Valley.
A field of 11 has been assembled for the 1200 metre event, which is
headlined by the re-appearance of Blue Diamond Stakes winner Miracles of
Life.
I Love It, to be ridden by champion jockey Damien Oliver, has drawn
alongside Miracles of Life in gate 3 and John is confident that if the filly runs up to her best the three-year-old can upset her higher profile rival.
I Love It made a huge impression with a five length debut win over 1000
metres at Warracknabeal on 8 September running the quickest time of the day with good splitsand John hasn't hesitated to throw her into the deep end against some of the best sprinting fillies around.
And it seems it wasn't just John who was impressed with I Love It's first
up win.
The phone rang hot with Interest to buy the filly in the days after the race but in the word's of a famous channel 7 game show - the response
was 'no deal'.
Good luck to all the owners for what promises to be an exciting night.
