Kiwi bred Sacred Falls filly Miss Jennifer was favourite for the 1200m fillies and mares maiden and raced on the pace before powering clear to win by two and three-quarter lengths in an eye-catching display.
 



A $160,000 Karaka Book 1 purchase from the Waikato Stud  draft for Cape Schanck Stud, Miss Jennifer is the latest winner to carry the colours of Tony Ottobre and his family.

She is the fourth winner from good producer Miss Purrfection, who is also the dam of stakes-winners Seaway and Kiwi Karma, the dam of current Aussie bred South African Group II winner Kitty Cat Chat.

Miss Jennifer traces back to a great old Victorian female family with her third dam Vanotrice by Vain from Champion 3YO Filly Toltrice.
