Third Win for All Too Hard Filly

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday Oct 4
All Too Hard has been churning out the winners since the start of the season with smart filly Za Zi Ba adding to his tally with a tenacious win at Canterbury on Wednesday.

The Brad Widdup trained filly scored at Wyong at the back end of her two year-old season and was a last start winner at Kembla.

Za Zi Ba as a yearlingTaking on colts and geldings for the Benchmark 68 event over 1200 metres, Za Zi Ba led all the way and held on strongly to win by a long head.

Za Zi Ba was a $400,000 Inglis Easter purchase from the Kitchwin Hills draft and runs for a partnership that includes Max Whitby, Neil Werrett and Damion Flower.

With three wins from seven starts and prizemoney topping $75,000, Za Zi Ba is a real trier that can only improve.

A half-sister to Group III placed Redoutable Heart, Za Zi Ba is the fifth winner from stakes-placed More Than Ready (USA) mare Wiener, a sibling to Group I winner Snitzel and Group III winners Hinchinbrook and Viennese.

Vinery Stud's All Too Hard leads the Australian Second Season Sires List and stands this spring at a fee of $44,000.
