Now the winner of four of his five starts, Farnan came firmly into contention for next week’s $3.5 million feature after his win in the Silver Slipper Stakes (Gr 2, 1100m) a fortnight earlier at Rosehill, with the colt advancing to an even higher level on Saturday. Starting a well-supported $1.80 favourite, Farnan SPORTPIX Farnan was quickly away and soon took the lead but was then pressured on occasions Later on the Randwick programme, the then travelled well at a quick tempo, clocking before drawing clear shortly after turning into high-class sprinter Nature Strip (Nicconi) (from the 800m): 10.00, 10.25 (400m in 20.25), the straight. returned to peak form at his second run back 11.00 (600m in a brilliant 31.25) and 12.19 to From that point on he was not threatened, from a spell when taking out the weight-for- give him a very fast 43.44 for his last 800 metres. winning comfortably by a length and three- age Challenge Stakes (Gr 2, 1000m), returning The time for the 1000m journey, 56.87, quarters from the Blue Diamond Stakes (Gr 1, outstanding sectionals in the process. was very quick on a Soft 6 track, but was still 1200m) winner Tagaloa (Lord Kanaloa) in the Nature Strip needed to work along the rails 1.14 seconds outside the track record of Redzel slick time of 1:09.86 on the Soft 7 track. from his inside barrier to find the lead and he (Snitzel), who finished three lengths back as Farnan’s 200-metre sectional breakdown was runner-up on Saturday. impressive (from the 1000m): 10.96, 11.09 (400m Another to impress on the watch, while in 22.05), 10.64 (600m in 32.69), 11.05 (800m in not in the same league as Nature Strip, was the 43.74) and 12.04 for his final 200 metres, giving the Gerald Ryan-trained fillyVillami (Foxwedge), colt a fast 55.78 for his last 1000 metres - especially who demonstrated her talent with an smart on the affected track. impressive first-up win in the Fireball Stakes The TAB now has Farnan as their $5 (Listed, 1100m). favourite for the Golden Slipper, with Tagaloa Having only her eighth start and her first at $6, Hanseatic (Street Boss) $7 and Saturday’s since October, Villami was quickly away from impressive Flemington winner Minhaaj her outside barrier (seven), went straight to Nature Strip SPORTPIX (Exceed And Excel) next at $9.00. the front after traveling nicely at a solid tempo,

The time for the 1100 metres was a fast 1:02.26 (11.32 200m rate), equivalent to 1:07.92 for 1200 metres, extremely good times on a track rated as Soft 7. In fact, Villami’s time was only 0.59 seconds outside the track record. Her 200-metre breakdown was very smart being (from the 1000m): 10.53, 10.71 (400m in 21.24), 10.53 (600m in 31.77) 10.84 (800m in 42.61) and 11.98 for her final 200 metres to give Villami an impressive 54.59 for her last 1000 metres.

Meanwhile, in the opening event at Flemington, the aforementioned Minhaaj, leapt to the fourth line of betting for Saturday week’s Golden Slipper after her highly impressive victory in the Thoroughbred Breeders Stakes (Gr 3, 1200m) for two-year-old fillies. The Lindsay Park-trained and Shadwell- raced filly, who was advancing in class after her easy win on debut in a two-year-old maiden (1000m) at Bendigo on February 15, raced close to the speed before moving away to an easy four and a half length victory. The win looked very good to the eye, and also on the clock, with Minhaaj’s 200-metre breakdown being (from the 1000m): 10.39, 11.02 (400m in 21.41), 10.88 (600m in 32.29), 11.63 (800m in 11.63) and 12.41 to give her a quick last 1000 metre time of 56.33 on the Soft Cosmic Force SPORTPIX 6 track.
