One to Watch – Kembla

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday Feb 24

A well related filly by champion sire Zoustar broke her maiden in style at Kembla on Tuesday bringing a timely pedigree update for her Inglis Easter bound sibling.

The Michael Freedman trained Fairway to Heaven was backed as though unbeatable in the 1000m maiden and she proved punters correct when scoring an easy win.

Ridden by Tommy Berry, Fairway to Heaven was quick from the gates and skipped away turning for home to win by more than two lengths.

Bred and retained to race by Fairway Thoroughbreds, she is the second winner from stakes-winning Lonhro mare Taraayef, who was bought by James Harron Bloodstock for Fairway Thoroughbreds from the Shadwell Dispersal at the 2021 Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale.

The current yearling from Tarrayef is a colt by Anamoe that will be offered in the Segenhoe draft at the Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale as Lot 138.

Taraayef had a Zoustar filly last spring that is a full sister to Fairway to Heaven and was then covered by Extreme Choice.
