Cambridge Stud based Almanzor (Fr) featured overnight in the UK with a new stakes-winner when Brielle captured the Listed Aphrodite Fillies Stakes (1m4f) at Newmarket.
A two time winner last year at three, the David O’Meara trained four year-old mare has made good progress this year and made a lie of her long odds for this assignment.
Ridden by Daniel Tudhope, Brielle was well rated in front to score by a length taking her overall record to four wins and three placings from 11 starts.
A homebred for Elwick Stud, Brielle is the first stakes-winner among three winners from six foals to race from Craic Agus Spraoi, a placed half-sister to Group I winner Parish Hall from the family of Group I winner MacSwiney.

She is the 31st stakes-winner worldwide for Wootton Bassett’s champion son Almanzor, who stands this spring at a fee of $25,000.
